So, I am sure that many of you saw that I now have two healthy, wild caught house geckos (from my back yard). After keeping them in a minimalistic cage until I saw them eat.
Today, I went out and got everything I needed to make them a proper habitat.
The substrate is a mix of top soil (baked) and Eco-Earth. The "background" is two pieces of driftwood that has been leached and baked.
I had a hard time deciding what plants to use, but went with a brom and a dwarf fern. The fern will need periodic trimming, but I think it looks good in there.
The lighting is a 75w equivalent "Daylight" CFL.
There are several hiding places under the wood and plants.
I still need to get dry ice to sterilize some leaves for ground cover and I am going to order some moss to grow on the wood.
Here are a few pics:
Hope you like it.
