Beautiful Tank. I'm from Germany and I don't understand all the words but I love your videos! You are a nice dude! 👍😉👍

I love this tank! It looks so amazing! You and Bree did a great job! I love how you have used as much space as possible to make such fun climbing and hiding spaces for Clementine 🧡

Enclosure looks Awesome.👍

Just found your vids last week . I have a crested gecko and your vids helped me set is home up. keep up the awesome work

Wow that is a fab set up, love it! New to your channel, after watching and few other videos of yours, it has inspired me to do 2 set ups like this for my 2 boys. Ordered everything and now can't wait to start it all when everything arrives! I have learnt quite a bit from you so far so thank you, (wish i came across your channel sooner!) ^.^

Looks great, nicely done.

Awesome build you two! I really gotta upgrade my gecko's digs... Woo hoo for the Canadian contest but not an insta user

awesome build u guys did !!! stay safe and keep building ;)

beautiful terra! might have to grab myself a bag of the stuff

thanks for sharing. I really like your setup!

Bro I love your videos I watch all your stuff I surf your playlists man you a king 👑

That's really awesome. I like it more than the Excavator Clay from the looks of it. I'm looking forward to trying it out at some point

Definitely using this video as a tank inspiration for my leopard gecko that I’m getting, I also subbed

Very nice Mike!!

I have a leperd gecko that think she a crested gecko and is always climbing. Love the tank.

Im about to create my obscenely large enclosure for my leopard gecko. This was very inspirational. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this wonderfully helpful video. At this I have no experience with arid geckos...I run a rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming for geckos. I have worked with and keep crested, gargoyles and many other tropical species. I also specialize in tokay geckos (Love this species!). I would like to expand to being able to provide bio-active housing for arid species as well. Your video goes a long way to helping me help these species as well. Thank you so very much!

I like the look of it. I am always tempted to try using a little plaster of paris because it is so much work and I wouldn't want to have to keep doing it.I guess that it would be terrible if you ever wanted to get it out though

amazing Iove this I will try to do the same soon... Thank you !!

I’m from Italy and your videos is really intresting

5:55 what are you doing in my swamp?! Excellent work on this tank, you two did fantastic on it, I absolutely love how it turned out. Bummed that I can't enter the giveaway, but hopefully you'll be able to do one with Americans some day. Anyways, lovely video, mate!

damn cool video i need some of that Stone desert stuff

This is literally the only review of this product in English on KZfaq. I'm curious as to how much the clay hardened after drying? My son and I want to do a custom enclosure for his gecko but I'm not exactly impressed with the way the excavator clay looks like it would crumble even after it's dried. Thanks for the video, I'm glad i came across it

Thx for sharing

I’m so sad I’m British. But great video! Clementine looks great in there she reminds me of my Leo (Rango)

I do indeed enjoy this

Just built the background for my own leopard gecko viv! It didn’t go as planned, because I put what I thought would be a good amount of water, (which was way too much) but I put some coco coir and sphagnum moss in their and it should be good. We’ll see how it dries!

That was nice.. I really like what y'all did with balloons to make void's.

That looks amazing and I'm trying to think of what background on my leopard gecko tank but I can't think of what I want to have as a background for my boy leopard gecko

Can you give an update on how this is holding up now? Is the clay still as sturdy as it was at the beginning? Thank you so much!

Thanks for sharing. God bless and stay safe.

Awesome video

My leo would love this

Hey I’m new to ur channel and I love ur content it’s incredible and inspiring. I love this setup and I was wondering if u could ever find time to do a new leopard gecko enclosure setup or even just update it. My name is Noah but I’m on my mom’s computer and I’m trying to convince them to let me get a leopard gecko I have wanted one for a year now and I do research every day. I want to tell you to keep going and continue to do what you love.

Your so Creative. Looks like your Leo loves it.. You and your Girlfriend are great together! Keep up the good work man! My Favourite KZfaq Channel🙂🦎

cool tank! I am a little sad that the color of the clay didn't match up better with the soil you guys chose. I think that really would have brought it all together really nicely!

"ok, kids"....LOL how about 45 year olds? Haha :) I'm revamping my cage and remembered you had great tutorials on substrate. In fact, years ago I watched one from you and bought that clay litter and just have never put it to the test but today is the day. Now just trying to find that bag I bought 2 years ago :)

That looked awesome im getting a leopard when everything is settled down a bit to. I would love to hear your ideas with a bioactive build and this clay. Should i mix it togheter or any other ideas that could i would realy love to use this clay to. What color clay do you think looks most natural for a leopard habitat? Great channel appreciate all your cool videos

Cool video

Hey Mike! how'd you clean up the excess clay and streak marks on the glass left behind when you applied the clay?it looks super clean!

Are there gonna be more vids since everyone is quarantined

😃 yes

Love the design, but how do you clean inside the hides?

My channel is all about my ball pythons but seriously considering getting one of these little guys

im curious if you could use a party/long balloon to make a tunnel :P

Oh boy! I wish I won the bag of dirt giveaway!

How can you clean the hides

How do you clean out these hides that are fixed structures?

Amazing 👏 🙀 😮 😲 😯 One question what kind of UVB light did you use ?🤔

Great video and beautiful desert vivarium , Your Girlfriend’s Lil desert “dino “is going to be happy !

totes butt-hurt about the giveaway. That tank is beautiful though guys! looks awesome!!

What species was the coffee plant in the chameleons enclosure?????

How do you get those like rocks for back round

How's cleaning with this product?

Where did you get the calcium and vitamin bowl?

is this the same as excavator clay? if not whats the difference?

Where did she get the food bowl? I have to have it !I love the food bowl!

If you ever do another giveaway could you also include New Zealand? Love the vids btw, keep up the great content

I just recently got into geckoes and I really love this setup but I'm curious about a few things since there's conflicting info out there, first how do you clean this type of setup? Second I've heard that substrate can be bad for geckoes because they accidentally ingest it during feeding time so how do we avoid that with this type of setup and lastly I love live plants but how do we keep them thriving in such an environment, are there plants that are no nos?

When will you do a giveaway that includes the UK where’s the love fro your UK followers? I love the tank build you both made it look so easy and so much fun! One day i will be brave enough to make my own custom terrarium. One Day hopefully in the near by future!

How did you go about making and maintaining a humid hide for naturalistic leopard gecko tank?

what happens if you need to replace the heat mat?

What type of plants are those

Do they need any dirt or anything like that to dig?

I understand this video was kind of sponsored by Exo-Terra and the main thing was to show off their product but I lately build few of those just 36x18 and cant imagine using that clay, at least not on its own like you did. I cant even imagine how heavy that tank must be, what I do is I simply buy big thick sheet of polyester, shape it and cover it with thin layer of clay. That also allows you to cut out some pieces that can be put in and out so you have better access to hides etc. My main concern would be the hide she went into first, if she wont feel like coming out or make toilet out of it then it will be a nightmare to get her out or to clean in there.

Can you use this as dry substrate

Where did you get the arid mix? I can’t find it in the US.

Amazing habitat I have 7 leopard geckos do you think they would enjoy a bioactive habitat

Do you think you could use that substrate dry on a foam/silicone base like you’d do with cocoa fiber?

HI, thank you for doing these wonderful videos. i have watched more of them, then todays subscribe i clicked. i just don't pay attention if i clicked. I was noticing how wonderful this new product is, compared to using grout on foam.. So glad they designed it. what i did not get to see though, is with your balloons there, you have it so you can see her in the cave now? from outside her enclosure? i used the spray foam for that effect on a spider enclosure i made for my son.. so I was curious if you's did this too.. thanks again for make how to videos i am bonniebarink on IG

Could you mix this with an ABG substrate to help with tunneling species? Like a ball python?

what's the lamp you use for the terrarium ?

Hope this gets a giveaway for the USA!

Would this work for a Fat tailed gecko?

I'm so mad I lost a really nice setup. Made my own backdrop and put so much work into it and right when it was ready for me to finally use 🤬. I took months to get it just perfect. It was super nice. Damn it. I'm bitter 😐 Gonna do it all again, second time's a charm? 😆

did you use the full amount of stone desert in your terrarium ?

6:58 i dont know if you tried it, but just putting the stuff on top of soil, small mist, plus heat lamp and it harden with the sand/rock effect. Edit: You did lol hahahha thx

This is a few years old but do you know how many lbs I would need for a 4x2x2 habitat, think it is 120 gallons

Yo what are the dimensions of the terrarium?

is terra sahara good

Okay so I got the same tank and am currently playing with placement, where is the best spot for a moist hide and how big\small should it be?

may I ask why you guys didn't make it bioactive?

Quick question are you required to have a uvb and uva light for a leopard gecko or just a heat mat ?

Can you put links to all the products?

I just bought this stuff. I was wondering if it's still mouldable when dry?. I am wondering, because if I change my mind at some point. Is it possible to make a new hide, or make the previous one bigger? Also I have a bearded dragon 😁

What morph of gecko is he?

Amazing tank setup! I really like the many "secret" holes and tunnels. I'm going to get my first Leopard Gecko and I'm buying the Exo terra 90 x 45 x 60cm tank for him. I want to design the whole tank in a desert theme and I'm curious if I can use the exo terra stone desert substrate as bedding? I'm a bit worried because there are some bigger and smaller (sharp?) stones in it and I don't want to harm my gecko. many greetings from germany!

Is there any risk of impaction in the Geckos stomach? Can this substrate be used in a bioactive strophurus ciliaris setup? If so, what springtails/isopods can be used?

Where did you order your Arcadia Arid substrate? I am in Hinton Alberta.

Is a 5.0 zoo med uvb bulb good for a leopard gecko in a 20 gal long?

two question - 1) can you use earthmix arid without bioactive setup? 2) Does earth mix arid stain leopard gecko skin?

To all Americans!!!!!!! Now you know how it feels to be european. I'm personally not that upset as europeans usually aren't included in give aways. Greetings from Austria

I have a question, What substrate have you used for the terrarium?, I am trying to search a good sustrate for my leopard gecko and yours is very good, like a type of soil, pls ask me and I will thank you very much

But where do I get earthmix arid in the US? It's impossible to find

Hey Mike - do you think this Exo Terra Stone Desert substrate would work in a wooden terrarium?

What the lamp?

Do heating pads work through the substrate

@beauregard.reptiles Love the build. I was skeptical at first, but the final build looks awesome. Love the vids, as usual.

Is there any concern about the open cell Styrofoam releasing any chemicals when heated up by the mat? Or is it a non concern at those temperatures?

I use clay mixed with leaves soil and sand for my leopard geckos enclouseres. Would i be able to replace tha clay in the mix for that product? Btw the set up is awsome but too small and too few cover for the lizard
