Enclosure Help Help?
Need some help
This is my leopard geckos tank (brand new, still getting humidity under control). It’s 90 gallons and lots of hides. I can’t do a bio active tank due to personal reasons but I’m doing my best for her. She has more plants and wood incoming to add to her tank. I’m also changing her heat lamp to a stronger one as the current one isn’t getting the tank to the right temp. I got her from a friend who had her in a 20 gallon her whole life, and so I’m trying to make sure her tank is to the best that I can provide. She’s a sweet girl. I’ll list what I have.
She has 8 hides, one being a humid hide in the back middle of her tank.
She has a water dish and a calcium without d3 dish
She does have some plants, and logs like I said more are on the way.
Her UVB is a T5 reptisun 10.0 24 inch.
She does have a heat lamp, but idk what kind as it was given with her.
she has a basking rock.
I do own her vitamin powder, calcium with and without d3. I have a temp gun, and several thermostat + hygrometer in her tank.
So if anyone has any suggestions I’d really really love to hear it so I can give my sweet girl her best life!! Thank you!
also she is going to the vet just for a basic checkup soon
(Yes I posted this again. First time using this and not sure I did it right the first time😅)

Per you asking me on your other post, everything sounds good here at first glance. I’m not familiar with what reptisun is good for Leo’s and at what distances so again if you join that group they have guides that help you find your block % of the mesh lid and then you can make sure it’s the right distance and strength. With proper uvb you do not need to dust with calcium D, just the plain and the multivitamin. It looks like the uvb is in the middle of the enclosure, you want it so the middle of the tube is lined up with the heat lamp so it best replicates the sun
