why did u switch to a soil setup if u where not able to provide enough substrate for youre lizard to dig in?!?! were talking about at LEAST a feet of dirt if not 2. a thing that cannot really be achieved in a regular glass aquarium. you need a BIG and DEEP enclosure( i would say at least 4x2x4). you also need to have to right soil mixture(that robin mentioned about 1000000 times) it need to be compact anough to hold a burrow, you need to experiement a lot with the right amount of water, and THEN you lizard will burrow. you cannot just trow a few inches of dirt at youre uro and expect him to eat more and grow be faster and burrow like crazy!believe me i tried that setup with my savannah monitors and it just worked so great! i notice a total change of habit and activity and they doing so much better since then!
