If the background is just styrofoam, you could totally just cut it out. May have to scrape/scrub some glue off the back wall, but would be totally worth it for more space in the tank.

Hi Brian. I have this same enclosure for my Crestie. I went on Amazon and was able to find little green dishes that suction cup to the glass. They look like little balls with the top cut off and they come apart so you can take the top Tim off if you want. They work amazing in the cage and I haven't had any issues with them.

[@AltitudeExotics]

Great tip, thanks!

[@jay1033]

That made me so nervous when the geckos were all trying to jump out. So glad you didn't lose any.

[@AltitudeExotics]

Me too!

[@acesfan29]

Brian-- Wow bro, that made me sooo nervous when you moved all those geckos lol! Great job! Best wishes, Ben.

[@AltitudeExotics]

Thanks! It made me nervous too lol

[@tyliful]

that's a big colony. saw some with eggs. cool.

[@makennaadrain803]

Can’t wait until my mourning colony gets big!

[@SOCCER-cr3gz]

Me too!

[@alicia-or4sp]

maybe you could try cutting the background into smaller pieces with something like an xacto knife and try taking it out like that

[@jtoddwalsh]

Hectic release! lol Thanks for all the great info, Brian. I just got a crested for each of my two daughters a month ago, and your channel has been an awesome resource!!

[@AltitudeExotics]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@rachelkunz611]

It's really too bad they can't re-make this cage. Lol, I'm asking too much 🤣 Thank you again for another great video! Mourning Gecko's are so cute and so tiny❤️

[@sarahblancher3817]

Another awesome video! Seeing all those geckos running around at once was both beautiful and a little stressful! Very impressive how you managed all of them! I'd also love to see a video of your local reptile shop!!

[@WJSipe1]

I bought this cage a few months ago and I really wish I had seen this video first! Mine is for a gargoyle gecko so there are less issues with size, but I definitely felt many of your frustrations with it! But it looks so cool...

[@dangelohurtado6061]

Will you be selling mourning geckos during the Black Friday sale? I’ve wanted to start a colony

[@AltitudeExotics]

Unfortunately I won't have any for sale until the spring

[@dangelohurtado6061]

@@AltitudeExotics An animal and a breeder I enjoy so much it’s worth the wait

[@AltitudeExotics]

Youre the best!

[@unicornmollymoll2205]

If you go to Etsy digitallysinful or Brian marquez on fb makes food ledges for this enclosure.

[@harmonystargazer]

Wow, thanks your video i really am thinking about getting some mourning geckos

[@v4mp_825]

You definitely deserve more subscribers you are very knowledgeable when It comes to geckos 😄👍

[@AltitudeExotics]

Thank you!

[@luvlost03]

Just an update some of the geckos were able to escape and he no longer recommends this enclosure for small species.

[@kencross25]

Another great video giving us wonderful tips on container set ups. These little burgers are fast moving and jumpy. I have a Zoo Med (Medium/X-Tall 24” x 18” x 36”). 1) Do morning continue to breed asexually or covert to sexual reproduction when kept in colonies? 2) How many geckos do you as suggest housing in this container? 3) Can you house Type "C" with the other Types "A" and "B"?

[@AltitudeExotics]

You can keep all types together yes! (If you have type C let me know, I want to buy more lol) They will breed asexually when kept in groups. I would keep a group of anywhere from 10-20 in a cage that size.

[@Bwb623]

If that tank is less than 15” wide you could probably use the fluker’s bamboo sticks in there

[@MastemaJack]

Could Mosquito mesh tape fix your problem with the tank?

[@lukeandvenom5759]

How do you tell a difference When their pregnant. And when they’re not

[@AltitudeExotics]

With these you can actually see the eggs through their stomach!

[@lukeandvenom5759]

Thank you for your information my morning gecko pregnant I don’t know how to tell

[@shawnbeachy8675]

@@lukeandvenom5759 you can see two white balls in their stomach. It’s super obvious. If you’re not sure, then they’re probably not pregnant.

[@11chago11]

Maybe try to cut the background so you can remove it

[@JayBay813]

How do u catch them to rehome them

[@williamwedderburn9785]

Great vid! When are you going to be making a bioactive crested gecko tank?

[@AltitudeExotics]

Soon! Im going to do a full build of the Thrive 18x18x24

[@GES16]

Hey, thanks for this. I'm left with one question: is the top area large enough to support positioning both lighting and heating fixtures safely? (Don't worry, I have something too big to escape here. Sorry about your escapes.)

[@AltitudeExotics]

Yes, there should be plenty of room for 2 lamps. Thanks!

[@SugarSkullSmile]

Sooooo were you trying to let them escape?
