Hey, just got a 55 gal, with 4 leos. One albino, the other three are regular jungle leos. I cant tell what type of albino mine is though. The albino is a male, the other three are female. I used to have leos when I lived with my parents (8 years ago) and my wife finally gave in and let me get some...so I got four of them. See you around the forums.

Whitey

p.s. Whitey is the name of my albino... I hope no disrespect is taken from my forum name.:main_thumbsup:

im not sure what he is but he is beautiful!!
along with the other 3.
just some advice,
the hot rocks and sand can be dangerous.
papertowel is cheaper and easier to clean and a UTH works better.
in case a certain someone (not mentioning names) decides to bite my head off again,
its advice.
so chill.

under tank heater.
sand can cause impaction if they ingest it.
hot rock can burn them if it gets too hot and a UTH would be bigger so they would all be able to be warm at the same time.
i use tile cuz its a one time buy and easy to clean
and u mite end up with eggs :)
so u mite want to get an incubator and a laying box for the females if you dont have one
my girl surprised me with eggs and i was completely unprepared!

no problem lol
i got the tile from lowes.
and you can order an incubator online cheaper than you could probably buy one at a pet store
laying box i just use gladware with moss in it that i keep damp, they also use it for a shed box
a hide on the warm side, a hide on the cool side and a moist hide are what they are gonna need
good luck!!
trust me all the trouble is worth it for the lovely geckos :)
