Hello all! A couple months ago I posted a few pics of a viv that I had set up for a 1.2 trio of Lygodactylus Williamsi. Since then I have added more bamboo and a few more species of plants. A couple mushrooms have popped up too! Anyone else with shrooms in their vivs? The springtails seem to hammer them pretty quick. The geckos all appear to be thriving. They have all gained weight since I received them and both females have laid fertile clutches. One clutch got glued between the glass and the top plastic frame of the enclosure, the other was deposited in a small bamboo tube that I placed in there for egg laying!(good girl!)
The set up is still a bit crude but I have a "system" that works for me. smy_749 and Pirarucu you both were correct with your predictions. Having a top opening tank is a huge pain in the butt! I have been lucky with no real escape attempts while I am feeding or cleaning. One of the females is fearless and will jump on my hand and zip around on my arm. The other two dive and duck for cover when I take the lid off. Humidity loss has not been an issue so far. I run a humidifier in my reptile room that averages 65-70%. I still get paranoid and hand mist the viv 2-3 times a day. Just a light mist.
The only thing I would really like to change is to move them into a vertically orientated set up. And change over to RO water. The mineral deposits on the glass and plants drives me crazy! I really like this one.
