I believe I've seen threds of this before, but unable to find any with a fourm search, I'll just make a new one.

What is the best set up for a mangrove? Please include tank type, dimensions, heat source, etc...

thanks for your time
=)

I have a four footer in a 55 gallon aquarium right now. I have a night basking light that she seems to love, and a heating pad on the far side. The middle of the cage remains cool. Lots of hides but it prefers to hide at the bottom of potted plants. I bought a 4x4x2.5 foot cage that is just waiting for her. I am tring to get her as used to me as possible before I put her in the larger cage to avoid any problems getting her in and out. Others may have better info but they are arboreal so branches are almost a must, and a cage that will hold humidity is also important. The large cage I bought is melamine which holds the humidity quite well. Good luck, Eric-
