I agree, nice tank. My setup is similar except I have sand in mine. My Leopard Gecko is doing great.

Impactions are caused by long term, low level dehydration. Not sand. Its reptile constipation.

Thanks Steve.

Jsin- I just spent over 80 bucks on his tank, so i`m broke.Next month i should be getting around 130 dollars so i can buy more things for his tank. And i dont use sand, because of the risk of impaction.

The setup is good, but i do think a better substrate could be used.

Nobody answered his question. Yes, his claws will grow back, my leo looses some of his claws when he sheds too, its ok he should be find.

The setup is nice and it seems there are no problems with it.

[Sounds like you're instigating arguments. Similar to how it sounds like you instigate arguments on most of your other posts. Here's a warning -- that's two ... three you're out. There are ways to communicate your ideas and knowledge, that are also respectful. That's all we're looking for.

............................... LOL. R.C.M. Your right. I have nothing better to do then pick internet arguments with kids half my age. Im SOOOOOOOO sorry!! j/k Please dont misunderstand (Dont want that to be strike 3). LOL Now, In all seriousness .Its all about how one reads the words on a computer screen and your reading into them too much. There is no emotion to my posts. No sarcasm, insults or niceties either. My posts are straight forward and to the point. I see know reason why I would be disrespectful to people (most of which are children it seems) i do not know. If you ban/suspend me its your forums loss not mine. Im only here to help better the quality of the (normally horrible) info that is handed out here.

You should fill that big EMPTY tank up with some things that ACTUALY BENEFIT your leopard gecko. Leos like to do 4 main things: Dig, climb, wedge themselves into cracks and eat. Yours can only eat and climb in that setup. Allowing your captive to do 2 out of 4 of its main natural behaviors is pretty bad.

Let the hating begin. HA HA!

How about if you had said: That's a nice cage, with lots of room left. You are only offering it two of the four things necessary for a leopard gecko. With some of that extra space you should give areas to dig and hide.

Question: one of his claws is missing, will it grow back when he sheds? its just the claw, not the finger.
