@lego3311 I bought mine on sale for 20$ and i spent over 200$ when i left the store with her. Very expensive hobby. You could make your own but it'll take a while.
@lego3311 I was referring to my chinese water dragon. they're different than bearded dragons. You want more of what he has for a chinese water dragon and more of a desert scenario for a bearded dragon. And Chinese water dragons are cheaper than most reptiles at the big name stores (petsmart pet co pet depot) I say for a beginner get a chinese water dragon. They are fun they move around and can be handled. Anoles are like what 8$ they are really small and fragile and fast. Anole would be cheapest
@bxwarrior011 Ok I have a real issue hear. My CWD had a scab when I got her on her nose and it got worse as she continued to knock into things ( intentionally and un intentionally) the it was right about where her lip is. The scab has broken off. you can see the inside of her mouth like just where I guess its front teeth would be. What should I do. I can't find anything
@forgottentilldeath Yea, the best thing you can do is get some neosporen and apply some on the spot. I had the same situation with my cwd. His happened because of the Exo-Terra terrarium bar that holds up the glass, He kept jumping towards it and eventually had a swollen scab (Which is why I sold the exo-terra tank). Luckily this does NOT effect your lizards long term health and doesn't effect his eating behavior either. Get neosporen and apply it daily for atleast 2 weeks.
@bxwarrior011 I was wondering how would I be able to make a custome one tank and all and a I'm going to try to make a custom water fall too you know over time mine is still a baby though he is 7,8 maybe 10 inches.
@adampace236 He's not in that enclosure anymore, but when he was it was fairly easy to clean. The only hard part was the water, shit would be under the gravel making it harder to clean.
Yeah how do you do it did you put a glass or what thing, I am thinking I will buy the exo-terra terrarium of 36-18-18 and I'll put the exo-terra waterfall and when I saw it I like it alot and I one to put it like you, but I have a leopard gecko do you think it is a good idea???
@mrgeckoleopard2010 The water/dirt seperator is the Esskay Reserve, I baught it from Petsmart.com but its no longer available. As for your leopard gecko. It wouldnt hurt him to say the least, As long as the temps are high it should be fine.
Hi, this isn't about your set up, but you were so kind to respond to my first question AND you have experience feeding your dragon that I do not, so I thought I'd give another question a try...How do you get a CWD to eat from tongs? My baby (really little guy) won't do it at all! When I feed crickets I've resorted to putting him in a smaller tank w/just cwd and crickets so he can find/catch em all. I don't want to have to move him out forever, how do I get him to feed off the tongs? Thx!
@AutismAwareness02 I tried feeding with tongs, What I did was wiggle lets say a cricket or a fish that way he notices it. I personally dont use tongs anymore, Because when my CWD would take a bite at the food he would actually bite alittle bit of the tong too and I dont wanna take a chance at him damaging his mouth. I hope this helps.
This aquarium looks just like mine! My CWD is only a few weeks in our home from the exotic pet store, he/she is tiny, but we are planning to do an awesome set up like this. I've been told they can stay in a 55 gallon for their whole lives. Why did you give your CWD a new home? Before I invest in a 55 gallon home decor for him, I'd like to know if it is going to be perm. Thank you!
@AutismAwareness02 55 gallon tank is fine, Some will say its not big enough. But thats a matter of opinion, If your just keeping ONE CWD its fine..I'm soon going to be getting another CWD so thats why I decided to make a whole to enclosure.
hi just woundering if u can help me. I live in the uk (scotland) and have been looking for the barriers ESSKAy for my viv with my water dragons and i cant find them anywhere if u can give me uk site that would be brill also love the setup thanks and hope to here from you
@FisherFilmsTV thanks, its called turtle reserve, got it from petsmart.com hope that helps. It looks alittle different online, but its the one I have.
@idae209 the waterfall that I have is a tetrafauna repto filter, it comes with its own pump. The filter bags are called Whisper Bio-Bags. Hope that helps.
I want to do a similar water setup but slightly wider, cuz ive seen this kinda setup in alot of videos, i just wanted to know how hard is it toclean? I currently have a water bowl which is quite small and unatrractive but its easy to clean. '
@bxwarrior011 THANKS! how often do u have to clean it? i currently have to do it every other day. if i have a filter and a water conditioner how often will i have to manually clean it? THANKS!
how do you get the rock on the side of the cage? im looking to do something like that for my peach throat monitor, not the background, i have that on my cage, but the rock sticking out
@SPIKE2TAPOUT no water dragons need at least a room when they grow full ,or else its cruel .i had a 8 foot long 6 foot high and 5 foot deep enclosure and it was to small .
@SKERRIESSCUM Lmao, If you thought the enclosure you made was to small. you are mistaken, that enclosure you said you made was/is perfect for him. And theres nothing cruel about it, Dont get fooled by little youtube children making assumptions.
@Temphanis its a barrier from petsmart called turtle reserve. I used silicon to seal the ends. If you have a water siphon pump then your good since your going to be replacing that water every week or so. If you have a filtration like mines does then the cleaning becomes less of a problem.
where did you get the screen cover for your tank? wherever i go the 55 gallons all have lighting canopy tops with no lid. can you tell me some places i can get screen?
@Crestiefreak I built the top for mine. What I did was got some 1'x1/2' inch boards and cut them to size. And Since its a fish aquarium I built two lids to sit on either side of the spacer in the Center. I made them to sit down on the ledges on the inside of the top, like how the aquarium hoods do. And I stapled wire screen on the underside faceing the cage interior.
@bxwarrior011 then how come everywhere i look and people i talk to talk tell me that the CWD encloser needs to be wider and taller for the animal? im not trying to be a dick im actually asking a question
@bxwarrior011 then how come every person ive talked to said that their cage needs to be larger than a 55 gallon tank? im actually asking a question not being a dick
I know what you saying, I aint taking to offense. Vets and reptile shops have all told me a 55 gallon is perfect, Sure you can go bigger but its more in a persons preference I guess. So far my CWDs been healthy and happy with no signals of stress.
Yea it will...Alot of people will say no because some child told them other wise..Before I baught my CWD I asked vets and petshops to get the right enclosure and they said this is fine to use for his entire life. They only grow 34-36 inches depending there gender.
@bxwarrior011 thnks man obv vets will know alot better than misinformed people from petshops that want more money ..lol, im hopefully gunna be getting one soon, i nearly had to baby sit a small CWD this week nd setup a little 20 gal real quick(posted a vid on youtube if you wonna check it out) im gunna try n get a female so its smaller.peopele forget that the tail makes up most of its body so there is still alot of space for the animal. anyways thanks again
No prob, this tank here is a 55 gallon. Yea these CWD tales are crazy long. I remember getting it as a baby and the tail was already double the size of the body of the lizard. I still cant tell what mines is but I'm banking that its a female.
do u know if its ok to use real leaves from outside to use in the cwd's tank? will it harm it ? ha and sorry if i ask alot of questions because im getting a cwd soon just want to make every thing perfect
No problem. I'm not sure, I use bamboo plants on my new setup and so far theres no problems. As long as its clean and not with spikes like a cactus you should have no issues. But do some research online to make sure.
Yea you do need a filter with the waterfall, which it does come with. Its pretty simple to use. You just put the filter in the waterfall, and connect the power and thats it.
thanks, in this setup in total it was around 700 dollars all together with light fixtures and everything in it. But with my new exo terra tank its over 1100 dollars now. next week I'm buying a couple of sprinklers/nozzles since I'm making a rain system in the tank.
thanks, I use a siphon to take the water out. I baught a new tank (exo-terra terrarium) so I'm planning to buy another filter, it should help keep the water clean and less manual cleaning from me.
around how often do you change the filters? i usally buy new ones onlt after a few weeks before the get nasty, i thnk because of the shallow water; and i use mine for a turtle!
hey did you know you can use the magnaturals on the edge of the water allso? i use them for my baby turtles as basking spots.byfar my favorite cage decoration ever invented (besides the lid)
Becareful with those spiral bulbs your using. I have been doing some reading and they are saying they they can cause blindness in the reptiles as they are to bright and thee UVB is messed up with them. But other then that its a great setup!!

do u know if its ok to use real leaves from outside to use in the cwd's tank? will it harm it ? ha and sorry if i ask alot of questions because im getting a cwd soon just want to make every thing perfect
KraZykilla316 1 year ago
@KraZykilla316
No problem. I'm not sure, I use bamboo plants on my new setup and so far theres no problems. As long as its clean and not with spikes like a cactus you should have no issues. But do some research online to make sure.

Do u have to use a filter for the water and stuff? if u do how do u use it??
KraZykilla316 1 year ago
@KraZykilla316
Yea you do need a filter with the waterfall, which it does come with. Its pretty simple to use. You just put the filter in the waterfall, and connect the power and thats it.

such a sweet set up how much did it all cost
KraZykilla316 1 year ago
@KraZykilla316
thanks, in this setup in total it was around 700 dollars all together with light fixtures and everything in it. But with my new exo terra tank its over 1100 dollars now. next week I'm buying a couple of sprinklers/nozzles since I'm making a rain system in the tank.

GreenTheDragon 2 years ago
@GreenTheDragon
thanks, I use a siphon to take the water out. I baught a new tank (exo-terra terrarium) so I'm planning to buy another filter, it should help keep the water clean and less manual cleaning from me.
bxwarrior011 2 years ago
around how often do you change the filters? i usally buy new ones onlt after a few weeks before the get nasty, i thnk because of the shallow water; and i use mine for a turtle!
Oshitt1124 2 years ago
