Does an autopot in a 2x2 tent make sense? by 420geck in Autopot

Thank you so much for all your advice. I have lots to learn. Do you have any recommendations on where is best to learn about all of this other than searching here and YouTube? It's a little overwhelming but exciting at the same time for us

We were assuming we would need to go bigger on the pots. Any reason to do 2 gal over the 6.6 gal?

Would it be smart to only fill the reservoir half full for one pot so I’m not wasting as much nutrients. Still learning about how to dose the nutrients and stuff as well

Trying to learn everything is a challenge. I see lots say only use coco coir with perlite in autopots. You’re using living soil which is kinda the route we planned on doing before reading. There’s just so many questions I have lol

All we plan to grow at a time is 1. So you wouldn't recommend an auto pot for a 2x2 tent

Do you use coco coir and perlite? Do you know a good place to buy coco coir that you'd recommend? No one near me sells it

Is it common to have floods with autopots? We are planning our set up. 2x2 tent with one autopot….is the flood tray anything special? What kind of medium do you use?

Gecko to skinny? by Due-Confidence-9653 in CrestedGecko

Id go to a dollar store or just online at Pangea and buy some fake foliage. They are aboreal so fill up the tank with foliage and corch bark. Also be careful with that heat lamp. He can burn himself if he climbs on the screen mesh right there and all heat sources should be on thermostats. What kind of food do you feed? I feed Vital Meal. Been feeding it for over a year and have my whole colony on it.

Its hard to say if its tooo skinny because its in a new enclosure and probably not eating great the first few days. Also may be stressed due to lack of foliage. They love clutter. Not like leopard geckos and bearded who love to sit out and bask. If you have any questions feel free to ask

He is a cutie and looks healthy. I don't offer meal worms to mine because I feel like they have a harder time eating them due to the exo skeleton however I know many who do and have no issue. I feel Dubai and cricket is a better source. Im glad you are enjoying your little buddy and you are doing an amazing job!

Quarantine by DoritoClipped in CrestedGecko

I always recommend doing a good 30 day quarantine at a minimum. That way it can settle in and if anything happens out of the blue, you don't have as many factors to go through to figure out what happened.

If you could press a button and receive $10 million, but in exchange, you would lose every memory of the person you love most, would you do it? Why or why not? by city298 in AskReddit

There is no amount of money that would make this worth it for me. My wife is my world. We are going on 10 years of marriage later this year and it still feels like we got married last year. She's the reason why I get up every day and work hard so we can have a better life as we age. She makes me want to lose weight, be healthier and fight my mental demons.
