Thanks so much for your reply. Tony (my fiance) did a quick measurement and he's over 4" stv, he's eating 1/2"-3/4" dusted crickets, and he's not held much since Tony is rarely home (new job, overtime, and side jobs). He seems quite happy in the tank, but how do you tell if he is NOT happy and would be better off in a smaller tank? And what size would be better?

So how can you tell it the enclosure is too humid? This little one seems to like both the bowl and the waterfall (we got the waterfall since he liked being sprayed and we wanted to see if he would like it). We could always take it out and put it in another herp's cage if need be, but there don't seem to be problems YET. What sort of real plants are best for them to have? It seems he might be able to tear the plant apart unless they are fairly hardy... Oh, and he's eating 6-8 crickets or so each day, and from what Tony says he MIGHT be getting close to a shed.

One of his stress isues at the pet store was he was only in a 20gal tank with just a horizontal stick to climb on and a too-small water dish for a couple months, and for the last month he was in a 30 or 40 gallon with a small blue-tongue skink where niether liked the other... But now, he seems happy.

Thanks for all the help, and long posts are fine!
