First let me say,
I wish for all of you guys to be successful and enjoy your lizards to the max.

As my wife points out every day, I am wrong on many things, I have no problems with being wrong, my objective is not to tell you guys what to do, its to tell you what not to, and even then I can be wrong.

Guys like Ryan are the future of this hobby, no dough they will surpass us in many ways, but for start if I can make things easier for them, then why shouldn’t I.

Now to address some of your questions, witch I thing I did in the prior post, but maybe not well enough.

Plants, I avoid them because they conceal animals from keeper and preys, they also conceal from cage mates this affecting socialisation at least to some degree.
Not saying you should not use them, I am saying my lizards do better without them.

Hydration is much more complex then a simple water bowl, atmospheric moisture is what reptiles need, do the test for your self.

Take hydro readings in your present cage set up, then close your top and replace your bulb for a low 25w, redo the hydro test, you will see a huge difference, not only this but you will not need to spray very often, this is micro climate, a usable energy saving reptile habitat.

A thriving lizard is one that doesn’t struggle to keep alive, it can then use energy to reproduce.
