Some serious strength in those little legs...

Cleaned out Sylvia's tank today as part of her de-worming regimen and after getting everything set up, she went about re-exploring everything. One corner especially.

Very glad my sliding top locks...

She's roughly 23 inches. The sponge is to help keep the humidity up. I have a lot of fans in my room and with the screen top it can drop too low sometimes. I let it dry out or wet it as necessary and sometimes cover the screen with a towel or something. Luckily I've only seen her climb the sides after I clean everything or else I would be moving it so she couldn't try climbing on top. I doubt the suction cups would hold her weight, lol.

Great idea with the sponge! I love your background, where did you get it?

It's aquarium paper I picked up at Petsmart. It was on sale for $10 a roll and I had to get two rolls. There are cheaper options I'm sure, but I was getting other things at the time and just decided to go for it. Nice thing about it is that it's double sided so I could flip it around if I get tired of that side. They had quite a few different options.
