New to the Sulcata world. Got one this past September, (6 months old +/- now). Want to make a bigger better terrarium with some live plants and would like any suggestions/recommendations.

Thanks,

Welcome to the Forum, Nick!

For small baby enclosures, I just use the weighted aquarium (fake) plants similar to this:

..and I bury the weighted part down into the substrate. Extra plants gives the baby a safer feeling
