Possible Cresties

[AustimusMaximus]

So i'm thinking about getting a Cresty or two and ive got a few questions about stuff that wasnt quite covered in the caresheet.
1.) How many can you keep in a 12x12x18 exoterra terrarium?
2.) Are those Exo-Terra terrariums any good for cresties?
3.) Would i be able to use one of those neato waterfall fogger things in the tank? Im goin for a natural lookin setup thats easy on the eyes....
4.) When do Cresty breeders start picking up on production? Most of them dont seem to have many available.
5.) Does anyone know a good site that lists pictures of morphs?
6.) Are their calls loud/annoying? livin in a dorm so thats pretty important.



Thanks

1. 1 or 2 adults
2. yes
3. maybe--depending on what size cresteds you get. hatchlings and juvies might be able to fit into openings on the waterfall and get inside of it which would not be good.
4. cresteds can produce any time of year so it really just depends on if the breeder keeps a certain schedule. there are plenty to be found right now if you look around.
5. http://pangeareptile.com/morphs_colors.htm
6. no. they really aren't that vocal unless you have a mating pair/trio/whatever and they usually aren't that loud or bothersome. juvies will squeak at eachother from time to time or sometimes if you startle them but it isn't very loud.

I have a 12x12x18 with a waterfall set up. I was worried about the cresteds possibly getting into the back area of the waterfall, so I wedged it into the corner of the exo terra and then used damp moss and stuffed it along the one side I could get to and into the grooves along the glass between the waterfall and behind it from the top to close up the gap. I keep one adult male in this exo terra currently, use to house 2 smaller adults together in it. Even then, it should be plenty of room for 1-2.

I wouldn't sat 12x12x18 is adequate for one. I have a single crested in an 18x 18 x 24, and he uses all of the space.
