PETS · SPECIES GUIDE
Reptiles & Amphibians
Habitat gradients, UVB, heat, humidity, hides, substrate, feeding, and careful species-first setup.
Three essentials
- Build and measure the temperature, light, UVB, and humidity gradients before the animal arrives.
- Use equipment placement and replacement intervals from reliable species and product guidance.
- Do not assume two reptiles with a similar common name need the same enclosure.
