3 leo q's

first thing would a sunlight heat bulb in the day and a night heatbulb which emits a small amount of light at ight for nocturnal viewing be ok? for heat and light

secondly would filterd water from a fliter tap be ok for the gecko because tap water is supposedto be bad.

and thirdly as htey live in rocky environments i wanted to make my leo a rocky viv with rock caves and then a higher shelp type thing to go onto how would i secur rocsk to stop them falling and urting my leo? should i jsut use rocks big enough so as it wont move them and then make sure they are stable?

well i would reccomend a uth for the leos to get belly heat but as long as the temps are in the 88-92 range day time and 75s for night time it should be fine

filtered tap water is fine but if your scared of that then ther eis stuff you could buy that not toxic to the leo and gets rid of the chlorine thats in the water

also you dont have to get elaborate with teh leos and rocks but I would use something that could support liek 100 times the leos weight like glue or rubber cement or supports it all depends on you
