do you think i could use like walnut shells as a substrate...? they wont eat it or anything will they because i dont wanna cause like an impaction or something anyways thanks respond asap =]

[turtleboy5001]

i guess but it would only make it harder to clean and it would hold bacteria.

just use a bare bottom! : ]

Question: my leo eats about 3 - 4 crickets every other day plus 1 or 2 wax or mealworms. Do you think, in you opinion, it would be justifiable for me to keep maybe 50 or so (give or take a few) in a 10 gal tank?

[pimpgangster1312]

@itunes530 not too shabby. the not breeding part is not exactly true. what if i told you of a way to not only breed them, but a way to breed them and have more than you need for a beardie, as well as three scorps, and a T? It can be done in about 2 months, and be self sustaining in about a month and a half. it'll only take about 30 dollars, which includes food, container, and everything else you might need to do it right. let me know if you might want some tips...
