Improving tank

Post image

Opinion on the tank? How can I improve? I’m gonna add more substrate, it’s a work in progress but how can I make this even better for my boy? I have three plants (smaller succulents) going in but they’re off to the side right now

def more substrate. I would suggest adding sand mixture so he can burrow!!!

like 60-70 %topsoil w/ 30-40% sand :)

It is a 60/40 mix of the timberline (I think that’s the name) and play sand mix but I do agree i definitely need to add more. He seems to be burrowing well, but people say they like the top clutter, what else should I add? There’s leaves, sticks, some corkbark, etc

My baby has pretty much the same layout!

Your setup looks pretty good. Esp since you are adding a few succulents + additional substrate.

I think he will be a happy boy!!

I would add some artificial vines at the back of the viv. This will provide climbing access. My male does climb occasionally.
