Hello! I got my first ever leo 9 days ago, and after being bombarded that my house for her sucks, i decided to do a huge overhaul. This i guess will be my own asking spots in case i run into any problems. Thanks :D

#

First few questions:
Does anybody know where an exotic vet is in south korea?
And also, here is a list for stuff i have/planning to buy for the overhaul.
A 90 x 45 x 30 cm terrarium
Turtle uvb lamp
Vitamin/calcium powder with d3
Also, how many crickets should i feed her? She is few months old.

#

Also whay morph is she? I didnt wrote it down so i fogor

#

Wait one more thing: is scindapsus safe for reptiles?

#

For reference, she is about 7 to 8 months old

#

# shadow trail For reference, she is about 7 to 8 months old

there isn't really a set rule to how much she should eat, but if she is a slow eater you can feed as many as she will eat in 10-15 minutes, two to three times a week. if she just gobbles down bugs super fast, maybe feed what she will eat in 5-8 minutes

so it's a uvb fixture where the bulb is basically in a long straight line

#

instead of a rounded bulb

#

it gives a more stable output that is dispersed over more of the tank, rather than the UVB having a spotlight-like effect

#

I see, i will see if i can find one

quaint loom
#

zoomed makes one as well as arcadia, not sure if they are availible in your country though

#

you want roughly a 5-7% bulb

shadow trail
#

5%?

quaint loom
#

it's the strength

shadow trail
#

I really cant find any, majority of items like 90cm exoterra canopy top lights and stuff isnt even imported

#

Guess a round bulb would still do?

#

Other kinds of staple feeders are extremely hard to find here

#

There are superworms buuuut

#

nqa we do recommend a rotation of at least 3. they can live on 2, but its not as ideal. mealworms and crickets as 2 feeders are fine. for a third, silkworms, bsfl, roaches, or locusts are good

#

Yes, where did your got your gecko?

#

I dont like Seoul reptiles’s crickets because they live short and about 50% die. I got better crickets from 정브르.
