I like the concrete with the roks in it for substrate but how do you clean it and isn't it hard?
on the bottom of your posts what type of leopard gecko is that next to the mouse?
thanks

I keep paper towels in the "poop spot" and just replace it now and then.
as for cleaning the rest of the tank if he misses I spot clean with a rag 5% bleach/water, then rinse well with another. If there is calcium powder or bits of driftwood or anything I just vacuum it out.

That is a marbled gecko in my signature. He's living in my newest tank, heres a pic ... dig posting pics if you didn't notice

oops... lol just realized you meant the little partial stripe/aberrant leo
I'm posting that pic anyways hahaha

My first leo looked like that, he's in the pics on my other post, and I bred him to a normal a couple of years ago and got a female baby just like him.
This year I bred her to a different normal male and got a male and female that look like her again. Now next year I have a 3rd generation female with the partial stripe that I'm breeding back to the original male, hopefully I can bust the rings out of their tails this time around

now how do you get them to poop on the paper towels
and i can tell you like to post pictures i dont mind though because i like to look at other peoples pics

then put the paper towel there
make sure the piece is big enough so if they don't drop the log right on top of the other they'll still hit the mat
