Hello,
This Christmas, I was the unexpected recipient of a 55 gallon tank and two
Satanic Leaf-Tail Geckos. Of course, the tank is solely for the sake of
building a terrarium for the new creatures. In the meantime, I had a clean
5 gallon tank which I established for the pair -- keeping the temperature
around 73 degrees and a humidity level of 80%.
I'm hoping for some advice -- I'd like to make the terrarium a beautiful
thing, replete with flowing water and living plants. Can someone point me
to some on-line resources, and provide any advice? My experience with
aquariums, fresh, brackish and salt, is extensive -- but this is clearly
beyond the realm of my experience.
What would be some good plants to purchase -- preferably some which do not
grow profusely and need constant tending?
Are there any animals that I can mix with the geckos? I'd like to get some
small frogs which, I believe, would appreciate the temperature and humidity
-- but I'm a bit hesitant introducing some South American amphibians to the
geckos. Any advice? Its a huge tank, and I'd like something more than
what I presently have.
Also, about two years ago there was a vogue for ultra-sonic foggers; I've
not seen them in pet stores recently, instead, they seem to be fixtures in
tranquility gardens. Are they harmful to the creatures?
Again, any advice, links, and resources would be greatly appreciated. I've
avoided reptiles as pets for most of my life, but have always been
immensely fond of geckos.
Thanks in advance,
Jonathan
