I don't have him in sand anymore its a pebble bottom and it has rocks to bask near the light. The tank is in our basement where its a little chilly so the heat from the light isn't too much. That is why I was wondering about the water because it is a chilly room so I wasn't sure if I should heat the water at night when the light isn't on.

I got 2 guppies to see if he'll eat those. Should I get live mealworms or just get the freeze dried ones? The place I went to had a tin of worms for $7 and I was afraid to get them if he wasn't going to eat them!

Well we had the tank kicking around thats why I put him in there and the water fills it only about one quarter.
