Default What is Best Supplment? Please Help!

Anything you can suggest me.

Is Herptivite recommened?
or ICB Supplment? or Cal with D3?

Thanks. Im thinking of getting another 2 suppments because i have suckish retro-cal with D3...
Also Zoo med W/o D3... because my leo is hating them(their taste). also getting old. but i want to give my leo proper and effective supplments.

Also i want to buy right supplment that could be effective.

Maybe Rel Cal?

Please~

i have never used ICB but i have heard good things about it. i use herptivite in conjunction with calcium +D3 (no phosphorus) and it seems to do well with my leos.

Most people said they are bad but what harm will do to geckos if given much?

yes, leos can develop what is called phosphorus poisoning if the calciumhosphorus ratio is off. crickets, meal worms, and super worms have a lot of phosphorus v.s. calcium, so its best to just supplement them with calcium and vitamins without phosphorus.
