@nightinggale64702 жыл бұрын
Just letting you know: ceramic heat emitters aren’t the best primary heat source. A halogen flood bulb connected to a dimmer/dimming thermostat is the most natural and beneficial option during the day, Arcadia’s deep heat projector is the second best option. They produce infrared A and B like the sun, heat that penetrates deep into the skin tissue and heats them far more effectively than CHEs. Whereas CHEs only produce IRC, which only heats the surface of their skin. CHEs are good for nighttime heat, though.

For the second item, I'm training my reptiles to drink from water dispensers for small mammals. My bearded dragons will only respond to drips on their noses and mouths so it's much better for them to get water from one of those. Although I still put bowls in too for humidity and bathing options, quite often the feeders end up in the water and drown getting left uneaten and they get crapped in so they're not that great in general. And if those things happen, It means cleaner water is still there to drink.

The auto-waterer might be DECENT, if you added some rocks to it, to make sure anything small enough to actually use it, doesnt drown. but then it just becomes a cleaning issue. Although it might be somewhat useful if you are having issues with low humidity, adding rocks, and maybe some moss, to help keep your tank more humid for your tropical critters. Hide behind some fake plants or something. 12.99 is about 7 bucks cheaper than the humidity keeper options i have seen in most pet stores. but you can get the same effect with some concrete poured over a shallow dog or cat dish, with rocks glued to the edges to make it more natural looking.

I agree with you about the products, many of them are either useless or dangerous.

For a suggestion you should get a common rain frog. Apparently they are easy to take care of. Most containers for them don't have plants but little rocks because they bury in the rocks. The eat crickets and worms and drink water (of course) and sometimes come out at night. They also sound like a dog toy

One thing about the feeding rock, while it shouldn’t be used for every feeding, it could be used for enrichment for nocturnal species, but buying enrichment I don’t think there’s much yse for it

I actually have that first rock feeder thing. Sucks horribly for feeding crickets to anything but works wonders as a spider hide. Just shove some moss on there, uncork it and they climb right in for some private time. Is it worth it for 20 dollars? No, but if you have one and also have tarantulas its an idea?
