Re: Scorch's new tank

try getting a 20 gallon, it'll give ya more room to set up a nice enclosure. I find them at tag sales and yard sales all the time. I have like 8 of em in my shed. I like to mirror image my tanks,,,,meaning same on warm side as cool side.

Yeah skip the 10 and throw down for the 20, scorch might be a little bitty thing right now, but in a few months he'll appreciate the room!

Re: Scorch's new tank

Yeah, I agree, for about a month I had my Scneider Skink in a 10 gallon (my first, and I plan last reptile impulse buy) i moved up to a 20 long, and now almost want to go larger, granted most of the time he just lays around, but when he does move around he likes to move. even at this size your leo will appreciate the room.
