Complete Leopard Gecko Care Guide | 2020

Good Morning, Reptilians! This week, I felt like it was time do an updated Leopard Gecko Care Guide. I did one a few years ago, but I’ve been getting a lot of questions about that one recently, and there were things in there that just no longer held true. Reptile care is always changing, so I thought the care guide needed a bit of an update as well.

Of course I forgot to include cleaning 🤦🏽‍♀️
- Spot clean once a day
- Deep clean food/water dishes AT LEAST once a week (I recommend cleaning the water bowl at least every other day, though)
- Deep clean entire tank monthly using something like one of the following -
- Coccicidal Concentrated Disinfectant - https://www.beardeddragon.co/index.php?route=product/product&path=73&product_id=600
- Eco Clean Concentrate - https://www.beardeddragon.co/index.php?route=product/product&path=73&product_id=588
- Fluker’s Tank Scrub - https://amzn.to/3lYwU2w
