Hi!

hi

mossy flame
#

So the ideal size isn't really a 20 gallon.

sand trail
#

ohh

mossy flame
#

A 20 gallon is considered the surviving minimum, but not the thriving minimum.

sand trail
#

i saw that it was, sorry

#

ohhhhhh

mossy flame
#

A 40 gallon breeder is considered the thriving minimum.

#

I highly suggest reading the guide !guide

mossy flame
#

It will have a lot of crucial information you will need to know to own a leopard gecko!

sand trail
#

ok :)

mossy flame
#

Reptiles do cost a lot of money to own and are a hefty cost to start.

sand trail
#

but how do i get the amount of money? im quite low but can afford everything else

mossy flame
#

I would heavily suggest saving some money for some time to cover a lot of the start up costs and setup costs.

sand trail
#

hm, ok

mossy flame
#

Do you have a job?

sand trail
#

not yet

mossy flame
#

I would wait till you have a job.

sand trail
#

alright then

mossy flame
#

A new tank will cost you from 150 to 230 dollars.

#

While the rest of the equipment will be in the hundreds.

sand trail
#

oh, thats not too bad

mossy flame
#

You should also put at least 300 dollars aside for vet bills.

sand trail
#

oh wow

#

ok :)

#

thank you

#

oh also, is 35 a good size? im still able to save for a 40 tho

mossy flame
#

Really, gallons don't matter its floor space that matters the most.

#

36x18x18

sand trail
#

ok, good to know

sand trail
mossy flame
#

Some people in the U.S do get insurance for their reptiles.

sand trail
#

ohh.

mossy flame
#

But I'm saying 300 dollars as a lump sum.

#

Though, I would suggest it be higher, as you never know what could happen.
