water bottom?
how much time do cresties spend on the bottom of the tank? could you have a water environment on the bottom and as long as you have the hanging food dishes so they have a place to eat... would they be happy living on the vines and branches of the viv?
or do you need a substrate like coconut or moss?

You have 1440 minutes a day... how are you going to spend yours?

Re: water bottom?
I'm by far a crestie expert, but I notice mine on the ground quite frequently. In fact, he stays all day in a little hide on the ground and loves to bury himself in the aspen. I keep telling him he's supposed to be arboreal, but he's not buying it. My biggest concern with a water bottom, would be drowning.

Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand

Re: water bottom?
cresteds aren't swimmers and babies can actually drown in their water dish if it is too big/deep. some of my cresteds spend a pretty good amount of time on the bottom, some don't. all have pretty much the same setup, so i guess it just depends on the gecko. i'd have to recommend that you not go with water on the bottom of your crested enclosure. red eyes on the other hand would like it quite a bit.

Re: water bottom?
ditto on the above, i wouldn't do a water bottom either for cresteds. a salamander,newt,water frog,dart frog,turtle might do well.
