why waste so much time and money if they are only leos you are wanting to breed. Why not just use the easy ten gallon tank set up. Works great. Just take a ten gallon tank and then take a piece of eggcrate and some small pieces of pvc of equal length. Attatch the pvc to the eggcrate (that needs to be cut to fit nicely into tank) and this will make a platform. Then cut a piece of styrofoam to fit as the lid. Put an aquarium heater (one with a temp setting and set to desired temp) and place at the bottom of the tank. Now put the eggcrate platform in. Fill with water to a little below the eggcrate. put lid on and poke small hole to slide a digital thermometer probe through. now get it set to temp. Just use a deli cup with something like 4 small holes on the side and damp vermiculite in it. Now when eggs are put in put the deli lid on loose. Works great for things like leos
