I have a hide on the bottom of my tank, and my crestie scooter doesn't use it. He/she ends up hiding behind a piece of cork or under a pothos leaf. He/She is still very young though too. Why don't you do a study and place a hide on the bottom, middle and top and see which one is used most often (or at all) and let us know how it goes? Just a suggestion. Good luck!

:o)

:I got a question?
:
:Before I go and make some sorta shelf for my Viv (tall octagon), what i need to know is.....do you think Crested's would prefer hides up higher or lower?
:
:I have plenty of foilage, fake plants, a real one too, a nice big piece of wood, & some climbing wood as well, but as far as these 2 hides that i have......right now I have them sitting on the floor, but was thinking of raising them 1/2 way up on some sorta shelf....what's ur take on this....how 'bout some feedback?
:
:Oh....by the way, I think I might just leave the heat mat underneath as well....if that makes a difference or not?
:Thanks!
