I didn't realize just how big a 24x18x36 actually was 😓

I know they aren't a beginner breed! I work in a pet store and this poor baby had been there since December and I just couldn't take it anymore. I've been doing a ton of research and I feel fairly confident but I was wondering if there is anything that isn't covered in the basics I should know.

I have to take care of the reptiles at work but this is the first one I've owned myself so I just want to do the best I can. I'm definitely going to get more decor for the cage but this is what I'm working with right now. They are already pretty friendly with me from interacting more at work but if anyone has any tips for helping them warm up to you that would be appreciated too.

The hot glue is temporary. I bought the enclosing off my manager and was very paranoid so I went a little crazy.

I have this need, almost an obsession really to create a huge tank for a new group of Neon Day Geckos (Phelsuma Klemmeri). I currently have a 40G breeder and a 36G bowfront. I know that they are only 3 to 4 inches but I want to give them a good life if they live 10+ years as they say that the do.

I was in the shower and looking at creating an enclosure as big as that or bigger. I want tall plants, maybe a ficus tree for them to climb on. I want it from floor to ceiling, so like 8 feet by 6 feet by 24 inches deep.

I know that the only way to make this happen within my budget would be to build it.

I want to go to Home Depot and basically design my own walk in tropical room. Am I crazy? Does anyone else have this obsession? Or am I spinning 🥴?

Hey all, I could really use some advice. I am having a really hard time keeping things secure in the top half of my crestie's hab.

When she was a baby in her smaller hab, I tried to use silicone to attach branches and such to the walls, but after about a month everything fell down. She is currently in an 18x18x36 tall glass enclosure with a wire mesh top (I didn't want glass but at the time it was literally the only hab in that size available anywhere in my area or online). When I was building this hab, I used Great Stuff Pond and Stone to secure things to the walls, but only a couple of pieces held up properly, the rest came crashing down randomly. I had a piece come off again this weekend that has destabilized most of the upper half of her hab.

I need to take Chai out and fix this stuff, but I'm at a loss as to how to keep things secure on the walls! Both silicone and great stuff are what I've seen recommended but neither one has held up for me. How do you all get things to stay put?

Hello all. I am a long term reptile and amphibian keeper, breeder (retired), and rehabber. There are a few niche gecko species I have been looking into keeping for a while now and I wanted to hear some personal experiences anyone here has had with keeping them to aid in my final decision before I start building a species specific enclosure. If anyone has any kind of experience with golden geckos, northland green geckos, or wonder geckos I’d love to hear them. (I am aware of their differing care and husbandry requirements, commonly known low handleability and am looking for personal experience with encounters or keeping) thank you all.

I have the lovely lady but am unsure what she is. I would love your thoughts!
