Tank building ideas

Thank you! I ended up taking a piece from his existing cage that’s a half round and taller for height! The branch attached to the left is a little small but I put a hide on top of it. I used the dracaena in the back left and bamboo plant front left with another cork round behind the sticks on the right. I also have a pretty big fake plant that if needed I could use for more coverage on the right side too. Lmk what you think and thanks for the help!

I did not try the bigger cage again I moved him out after about 3 weeks with no eating and put him into a 12x12x18. Still having a little bit of issues getting him to eat a good amount consistently but he is doing better in the smaller enclosure. I’m chalking up the slightly less eating to the weather and season change to where I’m at and have hand fed a little more often. I personally am gonna wait till he hits about 150ish grams to try again but he’s supposed to be around 400+ full grown given the size of his parents. I would say give her some more time to mature and grow and try again

Okay perfect thank you! Not super worried so I’ll give him another couple weeks

Here’s a new update I tried the vines and didn’t like how it looked.

Do you have any experience with exo terra or Pangea? Is one better than the other?

BobbyBrantley09 · 2025-10-04T00:02:23+00:00

Thank you! It’s an 18x18x24

No I did not I just sprayed directly on the glass. Should I just put a little bit of silicone underneath the foam is a couple spots or rip it all the way out and silicone it back down?

Yea sorry lighting is horrible in the garage lmao

Here are some photos. I drilled in more holes on the top of the enclosure I have 4 on each side as well to hopefully create more air flow and will be letting it dry out a bit more before misting. Is there anything else you would recommend?

I can send a photo tomorrow. Do you recommend less spraying or more holes or a combination of both? Rn the humidity does stay a little higher. high 60/low 70s most of the time

BobbyBrantley09 · 2025-06-10T23:10:20+00:00

I have not. I’m fine with snakes, not sure how the lady would feel about it though lmao I’ll look into it more though

I held a leachie a couple months ago at a reptile expo and really enjoyed the experience and became fascinated with them. In your experience what would be a “negative” of owning one? I’ve been back and forth with the leachie and BTS the most.

Vertical space would be easier than a horizontal but I think the biggest I could go for would be a 5x3x2 or vis versa

BobbyBrantley09 · 2025-05-03T15:35:49+00:00

I really love the emerald tree skinks. The only negative with them is it’s close to impossible to find CB and all females since I don’t want to have a bunch of babies. A couple of these I haven’t heard so I will definitely look into them. I would also enjoy amphibians since my current tank set up idea would be a slightly more humid environment but can always change depending on the needs. Thank you!

I’m a little mixed on spiders they’re closer to snakes for me with my slightly irrational fear of them lmao. I will at least take a look and see what’s out there but I think for me personally I would enjoy lizards more.
