    Great enclosure, but could you please limit your images in size to 640 pixels along their longest edge, or post them as links instead of displaying directly in the posts, we do have dialup & low-resolution users to consider here :)

    I really like that mangrove root thing you have in the back of the leo tank over the water dish. Really cool! I'm assuming it's fake, where did you get it?
    Is that your humid hide in the corner under the leaves? I need to do something with mine, so I'm checking out other people's for ideas.
    Great setups!

    Nice setups! Love the leo and beardie tank. But I hope you know what you're risking with all that sand...

    Please tell me where you got the mangrove root. The in/out rock
    is really a creative touch, too. Did you make it, or purchase it ? Thanks for sharing. Glenda

    What are the risks with sand? What if its the sand immatation made with Ground English Walnut Shells?
    Its edible I mean.

    But Awesome Enclosures~!

    The walnut shells are NOT edible...

    Walnut shell causes many impactions in bearded dragons, especially younger ones. It's becoming as big a problem as calci-sand.

    If you're going to use sand, just use washed playsand from Home Depot. It's only $3 for a 50lb bag, and is MUCH safer than any of the pet store particulate substrates - the risk of impaction is ALWAYS there though with any particulate substrate, so just use caution.

    Our adults get a sand-pit. They don't have their entire enclosure filled with sand. about 2/3rds of each enclosure is shelf liner or carpet, and they have a sand-pit. That way, there's a much reduced risk of them getting sand on their salads, and ingesting it along with the food. We don't allow anybody younger than 12 months old to have access to sand.

    walnut shells have sharp edges that can cut the internal walls of the stomach and intestines.

    Did you use live philodendron in the beardiees cage or is that fake? It looks great
