For Pete's sake...PLEASE report this animal abuse to the Humane Society and to the headquarters of Petco...there is absolutely NO excuse for these animals to suffer like the pictures show...they should be ashamed and the manager fired. That is disgusting.

i agree -- I felt so bad seeing them stuck like that

if i had the 20g setup desert i would have snagged em and given em a better chance!!
I could e-mail the petco corporate but they would probably not do anything heck probably sue me just for snapping the photos

i have not read up on leapard geckos yet but their enclosure was roughly 50% humid and 90F

even though they use a desert setup I felt 90F was a bit high for them.. there was no other locations in the tank to escape heat from either. was 90F all around

makes me sad


Anyways since this a build thread LOL

I will add..

I decided to add the soil to the dry side and play around with it.. so now ive got the water and soil in
I wanna do a nice top layer of sphagnum moss and finish up with some fake plants for now.. until I get some live ones going good

find some nice wood for the water section to give proper access and exit for animals and probably use some of the fake plants for a water access method as well
