Thanks.
It does look like I am going to have to go there in person :(
Cant find anything on the internet.

Go to this link and order cheap samples online: http://www.buystonenow.com/

I ordered lots of differently-colored samples (pinkish, grayish, beige...), for each of my cages. They were about 4-6 bucks each (from different websites, including this one). When they arrived in the mail, I smashed them on my concrete driveway, so I wouldn't have nice squares but naturally-looking pieces of rock which I could glue together with silicone to make caves :D

Some of them I left "square," to put the water and food dishes on.

Chrissy, that sounds like a neat idea, but I am having a hard time picturing it. Do you have any pics?

That looks hugh Nico!
Lot of room in there I bet. Is that sand you have in there!! :(

It's interesting that folks in Europe use sand and folks in the US use paper!! LOL!!

I know no one wants to here another one of my rants about the horrors of loose sand as a substrate, so I will just shut up!! :main_rolleyes:

Here's a few pics of my 40 gal breeder tank. It currently houses 1.2 leos, and has 7 hides total, (2 humid hides and 5 dry hides), 2 calcium dishes, 2 feeding trays, and a water bowl. The skull is only in there during Halloween time. LOL. My animals like to celebrate the holidays too. :D

I just jumped from a 20 L set up like this:

To my new 50gal setup, that currently looks like this:

I've got a few more hides and features coming in for the 50 (elevated basking platform, repti-cave humid hide, large exo terra magnet hide, small exoterra waterfall etc...), and eventually I want to add some better cliffs into the exo-terra walls. Not sure how to do it and keep the "real" look, but I'll come up with something. Everything in there is faux except for the driftwood. The large rocks in the middle are actually 1 piece exo terra rock outcrops with a cave system in the back. My plan is to maximize the usable space in there, which means adding some levels.

here is mine, it's my first time ever with a rep, so it's pretty basic. i need to find a good background to cover up my awful pink walls. whoever lived in my apartment before me painted the rooms some awful colors, and i have been to lazy/cheap to redo it.

she is only a couple of months old. It took a while for her to get used to it, but after a fw days i had her hunitng and eating crickets just fine. After about a week of having her, i started leaving a bowl of mealies in there constantly. now she has almost no interest in hunting the crickets, but i assume it's just that she is not hungry becasue of the mealies. that is something to consider though...
