Hi all,

I'm taking in a leopard gecko from my cousin.

Have had them before and thinking for new enclosure that I will be using wall tiles I have left over from bathroom.

What's best for sealing the tiles? I was thinking of doing the tank bottom with them fitted loosely but would rather seal them.

Also I was going to make a second level. What's the best method of doing this with tiles? Is there something strong that will hold the tiles to the glass sides?

Cheers in advance.

You shouldn't seal them on the bottom. They can be taken out that way. Sometimes my geckos miss mealworms, and they go underneath the tile. No problem. Just lift up the tile, and get the mealworm.

As for a second level, I I don't have it connected to the wall at all. It is held up by wood, and it is very sturdy. But if you want to have something connected to the wall, use aquarium sealant/silicone.
