Ok.. I know it was cheesy..

But recently I've been looking at Fire Skinks, and they seem pretty relative to take care of and I really want one since I have an open 20 gallon now.
I was thinking about a plated lizard but they need a bigger enclosure that I can't get just yet.

Anyone know first hand about these guys? I wanted to pick one up at the Tinley show but I've read they usually only come WC?

Also, is it a yay or neigh for keeping a male and female together?
Whats a good substrate that's bark/woody that will not have mite infestations?

Thanks everyone.
