Hey all. I just got a new fire skink today. I have been looking for one for a while and finally found one. He/She, not sure yet, is about 8 inches long and very bitey.
This is the best pic I could get at the moment. I will try for some better ones later.
The enclosure is a 20gallon long with the back painted black. It has crushed coconut husk for the substrate, two hides and a water bowl. I also got a fake plant in there. There is a heat lamp and a UVB lamp. 12 hour photo period. I don't have a heat pad yet, but I will get one soon. The temp under the light is about 80 deg. F. and on the cool side it is about 75. Let me know what you think. The heat lamp is a 60w red bulb and the UVB is a Zilla tropical series 25 15 watt T8 in a fish tank hood. Let me know what you think. I am currently in the process of upgrading all of my enclosures, so this one will get all kinds of bells and whistles along with the others.
