40G Breeder

[Southern_Slang]

Will this be too big for a Leo to live in? I'm a noob to the site and im looking forward to getting me a Leo this week, and i have a 40 breeder thats not in use. Please help, all posts will be appreciated, thanks in advanced!!! :help:

a 40g breeder is a good size, i have a 75g that i keep my 4 girls in and they use every inch of it, i even put in a small second level that's right around 11 x 18

Hello... So the general rule through out the leo community as far as i know is if you are getting a juvi then use a 10g. So it is easier for the leo to hunt its prey. Other then that its 10g per gecko. I have 3 in a 30g long?(36"x18"x12") and another two in a 25g long? 30"x18"x12". And they all seam very happy. I hope this helps.

Thanks guys i'm gettin one for now after i get a few months of experience in i'll eventually get another or two my goal is to get a male amd 2 females.

As far as I know, the bigger the better. They're not like some other stuff, that likes cramped quarters. All that room would allow you to make a pretty cool naturalistic setup.

I wish I had a 40g and somewhere to put it... that would be awesome.

We're just gonna add another floor on some dowels. I can't do the double tanks, too tall for me. *lol*

No such thing as too big. I am cutting my leos back to two breeding trios and moving them from a rack into 48x18x18 cages for each trio.

I have 2 females in my 40 breeder. I also have a 30 breeder that will be used for a couple later on.

I also have magnetic ledges and reptile hammocks in my tank that they love to climb on, it's an easy way to add a little extra to a tank, plus you can move them as you please since they're not permanent

You can get them at Pangea too. Pangea also makes a ledge that will hold two deli cups, and as far as I know, they are the only ones who do.

I have two of them and love them.
