I got my first crestie yesterday. I did a good deal of research first, so I'm rather confidant that my little guy will grow up well. I have Burton in a 10g tank with coconut fiber substrate, a coconut shell hide, fake plants, a screen lid, heat lamps, and a humidifier. I'm feeding Burton CGD, with occasional crickets for exercise. Burton is a baby crestie, I'm not sure how old.
I'm just looking for any tips on raising my baby and would like to know about any common problems I should watch out for.

Oh, and my boyfriend is trying to convince me it would be neat if Burton could live with our Chinese water dragon when Burton is full grown. I'm rather against this idea, as I'm not sure their requirements are similar enough, and I don't want my crestie getting eaten. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
