Build a Baby Bioactive Leopard Gecko Enclosure

This is how I created an arid bioactive enclosure for a hatchling Leopard Gecko. I used a front opening ZooMed 25 gallon (30x12x16”). Add drainage layer consisting of pumice and sand. Lay down arid bioactive substrate mix (60% tropical mix & 40% excavator clay). The hardscape is flagstone corkbark and grapevine. Plants used: Haworthia, Earth Star Bromeliad, Echeveria, sansiveria, jade. Dwarf purple isopods and springtails are the clean up crew. Lighting is an Arcadia Jungle Dawn LED. Heating Arcadia 50w halogen. This will last for around 1 year before needing to upgrade to a 36x18x18” or larger enclosure.

Love your amazing naturalistic builds that you do ! They always look exactly how I want my enclosures to looks ! I need enclosure upgrades for all 3 of my adult leopard geckos. Wish your facility was down here in Florida lol ! I would totally have you do all 3 for me !

Great enclosure. Where are you getting your flagstone? Having a hard time finding it.

Could you do a bioactive Boa or Blood python enclosure?

Not hating cos I know people have different results but I had a lot of issues when I used sand, use to block the geckos up after going toilet
