I've been wanting an ackie monitor for a looong while right now but theyre incredibly expensive for me. I wanted one because they're super active, smart and fun when they trust you. I'd love to give them a good life by having an above than average enclosure, changing their bulbs regularly and providing alot of enrichment but I'm just not able to do that because of cost and lack of space. What are smaller and less pricey reptiles that are also fun and okay with handling? I don't really want a beardie and I'm looking for something atleast around 25 centimeters.

Just bought this and I can not for the life of me get this to work.

I've been able to insert the tube, rotate 90° until it clicks and is secure. But everytime, I turn on the switch, the tube will flash on for a bit then turn off.

Only one time, I managed to get it fully on, but then after a bit turned off again.

I also noticed that with the tube inserted, some of the pins on one side are still visible, I'm not sure if that's normal. See the pictures. Plastic feels a little flimsy, but even squeezing both sides inwards doesn't help.

Can't go back to the store for a few days, so any help is appreciated meanwhile.

Hi all,
I am looking for a PVC enclosure for my blue tegu. He is currently in a 8x4x4 grow tent and I am looking to upgrade. He is a little guy, about 2.5 feet long and does not use his full enclosure so I think I am going to downsize a bit.
I was thinking maybe 6x3x3. My upper budget is $1000 but I would like to stay around $700-$800 if possible.
Thanks!

As usual shes waiting by the feeding area for the lights to go off LOL

Cyrus is pretty much semi-aquatic at this point. Spends all day at the pool’s edge (or straight up IN the pool and taking sips of water every couple of hours) then spends all night in predator mode. Two more days until a new prey release into the enclosure (2-3 dubia roaches, at least one of which are his favorite: full-grown adult males)

About to switch my leopard gecko to bio-active, have had her since July. Everything’s been great since tonight I saw two of these tiny bugs crawling, never seen them before. Does anyone know what they are or where they could have come from?

I spent over an hour searching and crying my whole house. I thought okay I’ll search the enclosure one more time. Then I felt him when I grabbed the cork bark. Silly mf literally morphed into his bark

Caught my snake yawning and its so cute

If I have both probe 4 and 5 being used at the same time, they both show an error that the probe is missing .... But if I set 4 to disabled then 5 works, and if I set 5 to disabled then 4 will work!!!???? Do I just need to contact customer service?

Hi, I upgraded recently and got both jungle dawn and T5 lumenIZE products.
I have the app set up and the custom schedule I want. The light does not go off at the end of the day despite being set as 0%, does anyone else have this issue?

Long story short, I purchased a ZOO MED REPTICARE 60 watt Infrared Heat Projector from chewy.com (which I use a lot for my cats’ supplies and always have good customer service experiences with!)

The first bulb arrived with what looked like corrosion, so I was able to have a replacement sent. I just received the replacement, and it looks similar.

Do these look normal to y’all? Would you use them? Any thoughts on alternative brands? Thank you in advance!

Monitors and tegus are regarded as the smartest, but what group is the dumbest?

bought these enclosures off of facebook, theyre stackable and 20 gallons (essentially was trying to get one for my frog), the only downside is theres not a light fixture in any of them, is there a way to diy one in them? below are pictures of what the top looks like, they still need to be cleaned so please mind the dirtiness lol

Saw this guy creeping on me on a walk.

Hi all, currently I have my 18x18x36 on the floor but I’m looking to get a stand for it as my cat likes to sit on the mesh (no reptiles yet)

I mostly know fish tanks so I’m not sure what rating I should be doing for a terrarium. There’s maybe 5-8g of soil in it, so around 10lbs (guesstimating), so should the stand pictured work? I can see a structural concern but I’m tempted to brace it after I get it
