My friend recently aquired a plated lizard, someone dropped it off at the pet store where he works. He doesnt have the internet so i am digging around trying to ID the little guy so we can make sure his care is ideal. After looking at some pictures i am pretty sure i have I.D him as a Malagasy Plated Lizard or Tracheloptychus petersi, he looks identical to several pics of this species that i have located online and on the forums.

Does anyone have any advice for the care of this species? Or any links to good care sheets?

We need to know: tank size, substrate, temps, ideal heat source, and diet....any info at all would be greatly appreciaited

Thank you!
