Richard, thanks for the tips. My next question is how would I go about
putting more light in this smallish tank? I do have some heat lamp
fixures for my geckos that I no longer use (I switched to heat pads
since they are ground dwellers). I suppose I could go get a 20 or
30watt day incandecent heat bulb. Would that work? of course I'd rather
go flourescent, but its such a small tank...


I use 13 Watt compact fluorescent bulbs on my 2.5 G tanks. The 13W
bright Kits from AH Supply are good.

Right now I am still using the old incandescent hoods that I changed
to fluorescent, I'm in the process of making new ones from rain gutter
material.
