AMAZING LEOPARD GECKO HABITAT!!
Leopard Gecko Habitat UPDATE: I recently bought the “All Living Things – Tropical Starter Kit” from Petsmart and added it to the terrium!! SOOO HAPPY!! Soon enough I”m going to get woodchips to put over top of the dirt. I am very impressed as to what my leopard gecko habitat has become. Theres a few leos hiding in their cave during this vid… I am going to add a video of my leos during the night

how do you keep humidity down? like, more heat?
its easy, i use fake plants, have water only in one hide and in the water bowl. I also have a dehumidifier jus cuz I live in an old house with lots of humidity. It stays at 30-40% 40 in the winter.
looks way to tropical and in the info thing it said your gonna use wood chips for them??? thats so stupid use sand or repi carpet
Leopard geckos are frm the desert this is more like a tropical gecko setup
i cant wait till my bday to get one
are those real plants
no there not
will i need a heat bulb or will i be ok with a heat matt?
it all depends on the temperature the heat mat is putting out. If the temps are at 90-92 degrees F then you wont need a heat bulb but if its lower than that you should get one… leopard geckos need more ground heat so having a heat mat is very important for leos.
You do know that Leos are a desert dwelling species
ommmmggggggggg ppl should seriiously read a few comments before they comment – i’ve said a million times THEY ARE FAKE PLANTS.. RELAX.. HUMIDITY IS NOT HIGH.. THE TANK IS PERFECT .. i rather have my tank the wa y it is then a bunch of desert plants, I dont ,like the desert look so i did this, and im still giving them the humidity and temp. they need.
Even though it is your pet, lilmisstasha, pets do have feelings and have the ability to feel uncomfortable in its environment. Your tank is beautiful but whether its right for a leopard gecko is questionable, regardless of humidity status and so on. Its the contents within that may make it feel unnatural. If you prefer a tropical setup, may I suggest day geckos or crested geckos? Theyre both beautiful.
Theprophets got it, you don’t. Please take what he said in, and help your geckos out
i dont know how fake plants a styrofoam rock wall and tile is bad for my leo.. maybe i should put my leos in 10 gallon tanks with deli cup containers and paper towel. would that be better for it?! My leos are all HEALTHY, i take them all to the vet, which i bet most people dont.. all my leos have everything they need. my vet has said my geckos are perfectly healthy, so i dotn know what your talking about. if you dont like my tank, dont watch my vids.
I dont agree with deli cups and paper towels lol, I mean my tank is half sand. Just for one thing there is too many of plants. For animals, planted areas signify cooler and humidor,, which may or may not confuse the animal though you stated the stats of your tank are perfect. Also, what substrate is that? It looks like soil and rock or small woodchips(I could be wrong there) I do believe that you say your geckos are healthy, its just a matter whether they will stay happy, hence live longer.
Other than that Styrofoam and whatever else is fine
As a fellow reptile caretaker, I dont see why a bit of constructive criticism is a problem for you. We’re just trying to help is all. I wouldnt want to live in a world where noone gives a shit and lets me do whatever I want, you know? Well, take care, you and your geckos
Ugly, unatural , unhealthy. #1, ugly cuz u have bad taste,#2unatural becuz leos are desert dwellers,#3 unhealthy cuz u used potting soil with little white crums that is fertilizer and is bad for leos.
wtf are they doing on potting soil? Horible! use paper towel or repticarpet. it doesnt matter if the humidity is low, its still a loose substrate that can be ingested and i see it has fertilizer, which could easily kill them. plz they’re desert lizards! why did u waste money on a rainforest kit?
for one its not on soil nemore they have tile substrate. i uploaded a vid a while back called Leopard gecko enclosure. Look it up. I’ve had my leos for years with no problems, I’m on multiple reptile forums and no one says anything about how my tank is. Most of my leos choose to sleep under the fake plants, they love climbing on it ect ect. All my leos are big, and plump ill do a new vid on JUST my leos so u can see how healthy they r. I have other tanks with paper towel, thats jus the
i stil have ostiosprosis and now i take boniva
It looks really nice, it’s just not ideal for that type of lizard. I would have a look around on here at other peoples set-ups. I’m yet to get my first lizard (a leopard gecko) so I’m doing my research. It seems whilst these things may not affect the geckos now there is a chance it can in the future. And Geckos live on slabs from what I’ve been told so sand useless too. Reptile carpet looks to be the best and is what I’m going to use once my baby grows up.
hahaahahaha!!!!!! in the beginning
yeh thats the first thing i heard so i just put it on for no reason
Are you talking to me?
