Hi all,
I have been facing a quandary with the storing of my growing leopard gecko collection. It seems to be that once you get to a certain point the only viable option for storing leopard gecko habitats is something similar to a snake rack system with Tupperware as the enclosure. Nothing against those that use them but I really am not a fan of how it looks and the fact you cant see the geckos (they are pets after all and they need to be seen to be loved) really puts me off of this option. I have been searching for a while for ideas that don't include this setup. I have several 20gal long tanks and ten gallon tanks for my males, and I am swiftly running out of flat surfaces to put them. My geckos are primarily rescues, and unfortunately there are too many uneducated reptile owners out there, which makes my collection grow very quickly indeed. If anyone has had the same problem and found a workable solution, or any ideas really would be greatly appreciated. My main concern is the lighting on top of the cages, I have several wire racks that work well, but I can only realistically put one 20long on a shelf and only 3 shelves per rack because of the spacing to accommodate the light fixtures.
Thanks!
