Crested Gecko with Bioactive setup
Description
Unfortunately planning to move and I cannot take the tanks with me. Therefore I’m hoping to sell them off long before I move to ensure they will find great fits!
This setup comes WITH the crested gecko, Cheddar.
About Cheddar (I couldn’t put the information in the photos as the tank is also listed via marketplace which doesn’t allow pet rh-ing)
Cheddar is about 5 years old and he’s a Male Crested Gecko. Cheddar was born with a slight facial deformity which his bottom jaw grew slightly larger then his top. This has been assessed by a vet and it’s been determined that this does not cause him any pain or discomfort. He will live a long healthy life as any crested gecko would he just looks a little different!! Cheddar has also dropped his tail after being startled by a pair of gloves, he doesn’t like the color blue apparently . Cheddar is overall very healthy and is a great weight currently. He is fed Pangea formula which he loves. Cheddar is a bit more on the shy side and isn’t a fan of being handled but with some patience and care he will tolerate it. He is VERY jumpy and VERY fast and needs someone patient.
I will regome just cheddar if the tank is equally as large.
This is a perfect terrarium for a Crested gecko. It’s the small X-tall Exo-terra which is 18 X 18 X 36 inches. It’s an arboreal terrarium which means it’s tall not long.
Why choose Bioactive? Bioactive terrariums are fully self sustaining terrariums which means they rarely have to be cleaned. The only maintenance these tanks need is the glass being wiped when it’s pooped on. This tank also has a waterfall feature which provides the residents with constant fresh flowing water which many reptiles prefer. Bioactive are also just a lot prettier to look at in my opinion.
This bioactive features a fully ready dirt and leaf litter system with variety isopods as well as rare orange springtail colonies. Dirt is also layered in a 4 tier system to ensure the waterfall always flows smoothly. The filter pump located at the bottom that runs the waterfall is covered in sponge as well as a layer of drainage beads to prevent clogging. There’s a layer of drainage layer, Fluval Stratum, and the planting dirt for the plants. The water is NOT accessible by any reptiles due to protection mesh that keeps them out to prevent drowning.
Why is it so expensive? I am pricing this based on cost of materials alone. To add the waterfall feature I had to use a special spray foam in which I had to travel to America to purchase it as it’s not sold here. The materials for this were insanely expensive and lots of travelling had to be put in place to make it.
The only con of this tank is it is INSANLEY heavy. This can NOT be placed on a standard dresser or shelf. You will need an aquarium stand for this. I promise this will break standard furniture if you try. You also have to remove all the water and move a large portion of the dirt to move it. So be sure you like the spot it’s in before you put water in.
