Hi there all; I am a first time poster here and have found some good info.
However there is an issue I have not seen addressed. I use Repticarpet in my leo's tank, and though the fit is as close as possible to the tank, when I clean the tank I always find crickets, mealworms, etc. from the night before under the reptile carpet. It's really annoying since it looks like my gecko Tokai is actually eating more than she is, and I obviously do not want the crickets munching on her in the evening. For those of you who use repticarpet, what do you do to avoid this problem?
Also, I am considering switching to ceramic tiles in the hope they may conduct heat from my uth a little better and bring the temps on the warm side up a little more (right now they are in the high 80's during the day but really I would like them up around 92). What do you suggest? Any special type or size of tile? Cheap is best.
