My setup so far
So over the past couple weeks ive been gathering materials for my Leo setup I started off with a 20Gal Long tank with a screen lid picked it up for $30(smoking deal) . For my substrate im using ceramic tile i had laying around from a remodel i did. I alos went out and bought a good UTH and multiple temp gauges and a humidity gauge, 2 hides, 2 dishes and some tank decor. I attached a pic of the Warm side and as soon as i get the tile cut for the cool side i will post a pic of the whole thing! Any ideas and questions are welcome!!!

Re: My setup so far
Looks pretty bare so far but I like the tile Keep in mind that ceramic acts as an insulator so you may have to keep your uth a little higher to get the proper surface temps of 90-96*F. Plus a minimum of 3 hides, hot, cool and moist humid hide to be safe. The more hiding places a young leo has the more secure they feel. Good that you got probe thermometers because those you have stuck on the viv really aren't the best for measuring surface temps.
Looks like a good start
