me asked:
for my leopard gecko’s or bearded dragon’s home. i have like a 40 quart plastic storage tub from wal-mart and i was wondering if i can house my leopard gecko or bearded dragon in it. i’m getting him/her tomorrow, still haven’t decided which to get and i want to know before i go. i would like to keep it in a plastic tub if possible, because its cheaper to get a 40 quart tub than a 10 gallon glass/acrylic tank. also is it safe to put a heat pad under one or not. how would i heat the tub properly without having to worry about a fire starting or the plastic melting, and just one more question do leopard geckos need light because i have done some research before hand and have read 2 different sides. some say that they need it and others say they don’t because they are nocturnal which is true.
