Top 5 Reptiles That Can Live In A Ten Gallon Enclosure FOREVER 

Would you watch a part 2 if we made it?

Me with a 40 gallon tank: You will live like a God! Unfortunate update: He's living WITH God now. Rest in peace buddy.

Why do aquatic salamanders make the best students? They Axolotl questions.

I love this topic, I would like to see one for 20 gallons

“Water parameters are hard to take care of” Laughs in reef tank

“I’m Adam - this is _____, and you’re watching Wickens Wicked Reptiles” - Best part of the day.

Just a heads up- adult axolotls need a minimum of a 20 gallon long tank and need 30+ gallons (preferably 40+) for cohab. They also need to be within 1 inch of each other and have relatively the same size head. Also, black light is really bad for their eyes so only use a blue light *for a few minutes max* to see GFP.

Please do more of these reptiles for x gallons! ( also I’m getting my first snake because of you and other channels)

Yea I wouldn’t keep an adult axolotl in a ten gallon nor would I put two in a 20 especially if it wasn’t a 20 long. Don’t feed worms from a tackle shop cause they can have parasites.

"Remember when I was a teenager and had a black light in my room" Thank God my mom didn't have a black light when I was a teenager 😂

Now you need to make a "Top 10 Low Maintence Reptiles!"

I don't have an axolotl, but I want one. Actually, it would be my dream to have one in every color. Anyway, I'd never keep one axo in a 10 gallon. Even for one, 20 gal will be my minimum. Now, I'm off to research web footed geckos.

“Watch the new wickets wicked reptiles video or do my mandatory assessment that’s due in 2 hours?” Guess which one I chose.

Forgot my speciality (not reptile, but works by this list): tarantulas and scorpions. To be honest, ten gallons can often be too big for them, but they can definitely work if you set them up properly.

A single axolotl should be provided a minimum of a 20 gallon long. My male is 12in long and would be too big for a 10 gallon. Two axolotls should be housed in a 30 gallon minimum, doesn’t matter if it’s 2 males or 2 females.

Thumbnail dart frogs can also thrive in 10 gallons! I’d recommend no more than a pair though. My pair actually get stressed in 20 gallons so I put them in a 10 and they’re very happy!

I've never really considered myself a reptile person. But then there had to be a recommendation for a video of yours on RU-vid and I've been absolutely hooked. You've definitely broadened my horizons on this one. I would love to see videos for different tank size recommendations

Both my leopard geckos have 20 gallon tanks and I still feel like they don’t have enough space😅

You’re really big on not using smaller enclosures and I love it. You wouldn’t keep your cat or dog in one room or closet. Reptiles like space too

Fun fact: turns out that web footed geckos flouress under blacklights like the axolotls, so they might become more popular in the future

Patreon does give some advantages, early crew here! keep up the great content man!

How about reptiles that can live at room temperature?

Great video Adam! Thanks for putting my footage in the video!👏

How’d you know I have an empty 10 gallon tank lying around because my gecko upgraded👁👄👁

Always happy to see Mourning Gecko recognition! I would absolutely love to see a video on them. My girls are some of my favourite reptiles and I don’t ever plan on using them as feeders. They are very much part of the family. A full video of your thoughts on MGs would be super fun.

WHY IS THIS LITERALLY WHAT BEEN LOOKING FOR

I'm not kidding, 4th time you've uploaded a video after I searched it the day before and couldn't find anything lol

I have an extra ten gallon laying around so I figured I might as well watch lol

Many people have already said this but I would love to see a video that shows "reptiles " that do well in a 20 gallon. I have a ball python that is getting her upgrade in about a month. I don't want a 20 gallon tank just sitting around. I also don't want something I'll have to upgrade in a couple months. LOVE your channel!!! Please keep doing what you do.

Green tree frogs and gray tree frogs are invasive here and we have winters that dip into the very low forties and thirties(Fahrenheit), so they definitely don’t need heating. An alternative would be African dwarf frogs, they are even smaller and you can keep 3+ in a 10 gallon aquarium.

You give the best info thank you

A few years ago I used my 10 gallon tank for rehabilitation for a wild tiger salamander. It was mangled by a tractor (field tiller, mom found it, asked if I wanted a project), lost a leg and all of its tail. I had a 10 gallon tank sitting empty. So I turned it into a wild eco terrarium. Collected rocks from outside, dug up dirt from the field, collected spring tails and isopods from different areas around the property. Named the salamander Deadpool. A few months later everything was regrown, and he ate all the damn isopods I collected around the yard lol. Even though I was feeding him various insects I caught as well. Suppose regrowing things takes a lot of nutrition. I set him free in the garden area, where I know a ton of bugs love to eat our veggies. Hope he is living a good life out there. I did add a few more isopods before I let the tank to fend for itself. I haven't touched the eco terrarium in almost 2 years now. Never even open up the lid. Everything inside is still alive. I never even open it to water the plants. Really hate the idea of just tossing it all out. I am not sure what else to do with it at this point though. Before that I kept 2 breeder mice in the tank. To feed my little baby cute corn snakes pinkies. Froze the older ones, for my ball python. My mom used to hate seeing dead mice in her freezer lol. Sadly I had to give up my pet collection after I was 18 and moved. That was 21 years ago. Just starting to get back into having pets again. With 2 cockatiels, and 5 budgies. I really want a reptile or amphibian (limited space atm), just cannot seem to settle on what to get.

I just sneezed and forgot what I was going to say

just started watching u but love the quality and content

I enjoy your videos. Thank you.

I’m really loving your content

another tiny space herp, dekay's brown snakes like, snake discovery had theirs living in a takeout container for several months with no issue

I have a 10 gallon that I practiced making a custom background on! I left about 2 inches without a background on the bottom so I will definitely look into some tree frogs since I can put some water in there!

Great video as always dude!

Very helpful, thanks for sharing this information

A video on reptiles that are good at room temperature would be awesome! Things that can be kept between 65 and 80 forever kinda thing

You’re so professional, I just found you from recommended and was kinda surprised. Expected you to have a lot more subs. Keep at it my friend

Great video 🙏🏻

This is a great list! Another great video Adam!

Thank you so much I have a 10 gallon tank leftover from my baby bearded dragon, I was thinking of getting another reptile thanks for the info.

You're telling me an axolotl can fit in a 10 gal but a leopard gecko can't??

This was a very creative video idea!

I love yor videos. I think they are very helpful

Yes definitely do other tank sizes!

Tropiocolotes Tripolitanus are the true number one =) I rescued a pair of these two months ago. shortly after I got them the egg (that was hidden in the enclosure that came with the geckos) hatched, so now I have three of em. Enclosure is 27,5"x15"x15" ( 70x40x40cm)

Awesome video as always. Love that this had more unique species, and not common species that everyone's heard if and seen videos on 50 other times, lol.

Nice idea for a series, keep it rolling

I'd never keep any axo in 10 gallons, i have 2 in a 20 gallon and i really want to upgrade, since it was all i could buy at the time since my grandma surprised me with them.

I learned something new - I've never heard of web-footed geckos before! They look so cute with their long legs and big cartoon-ish eyes! We've been keeping a Chinese Cave Gecko in a 20L here - he could probably live in a 10 gal right now, but when he's at full size, a 20L is probably more appropriate. He was so tiny when we got him! He's up to just over 8 grams now, and he has grown quite a bit since we got him. From my experience, they're a pretty easy species to keep, but you never really get to see them. An ideal setup involves lots of dark damp spots, which means I have a 20L full of fake plants and cork rounds, and if you dig around you might find a gecko.

Love the fact you talk about play sand the way you do!!!! Preach on, I have been using it for years as well. Proper species-specific temps and play sand only because it is not fine-grained and gets passed easily...

I loved this topic. Yes please do more!

I've literally had this question since I bought my first snake need something to make use out of his old tank when he grows.

Talks about pacman frogs, shows an African bullfrog

I watch all your videos and they are all educational and enjoyable

Great video! 👌🏼

Please do a 40 gallon vid!

i have a bio tree frog tank it looks cool cant wait til the plants grow

Love this topic. Do more plz.

I love this video! Please do more like this!!!!

You should never put an axolotl in a 10 gallon. They need at least 20

You should do twenty gallon next

Love your videos brother! That pacman with a monitor in its mouth sure looked odd. Lol

Absolutely LOVE this

You should do a " 5 reptiles that can live in a 20 gallons " and a " 5 reptiles that can live at room temperature "

I wish you had a video about gargoyle geckos and their care!

Please do more videos like this it’s awesome Thankyou so much

I've been waiting for this moment my entire life

Could you do a video on 40 gallon breeders please? I have an empty one and having a hard time deciding on what to get. Are you saying tree frogs can live in a 12x12x18 exoterra? And lastly, how do you keep your schefflera alive?? 😅

Actually axolotls live in a pond/lake in mexico I don't really know what it is but the legend says that if your going to take on from the lake you should bring some water with you from the lake so they can live the rest of they're live under familiar waters even if you live galaxies away from the lake. (Update seems I've talked to fast he did say that on the vid I was just not on that part, sorry!)

Nice vid. Can’t wait for the 20 gallon one

“The reason they’re hard to find is nobody really wants them but I guess I’m nobody.” I feel you there, that’s me with least killifish, lol.

I know this is an older video but the minimum size tank for an axolotl is now 29 gallons, with a 40 gallon being strongly preferred

A video on custom built enclosures would be awesome. Like the pros and cons, does and don'ts, and where to look for customs.

Thanks for considering my suggestion!

Lol. My blind American eyes read the 11.5 cm for the green tree frog as 11.5 INCHES and I was thinking “how’s that even fit in a 10... oh centimeters”

Awesome video! However, axolotl should be kept in 20 gallons to keep them thriving!

My bearded dragon loves her 5 gallon.

As a challenge, try doing one for 5 gallons. Micro-reptiles galore.

Good subject, well done

I love looking after things, I have so many plants lol, it’s just really good for my mental health. But plants sometimes aren’t necessarily as fun as having an animal that will love u back and interact with u. But unfortunately I’m on a very strict set requirements. My mom is allergic to everything with fur and feathers, I am limited on space, so it has to be small, I also don’t have much money so it has to be relatively inexpensive, and ideally it wouldn’t eat rodents or insects but I think that I could do it if it was my only option. I’m not scared of snakes, spiders, shedded skin, or anything else so if u have any suggestions I would love to hear it.

I literally just googled this last week 😳 lol

The graphic for this video XD I thought the lizard on your shoulder was the geckos hand! Totally different situation! 🤣😭🤣

6:28 ... a few rooms over huh....*knocks on neighbors door* XD Great video as always!

From the research I’ve done for axolotls they always always recommend a 20 gallon long minimum so I kinda disagree with number 5.

Could you please make a video on gargoyle geckos? I love them but it’s hard to get correct information sometimes.

Great video Adam. Do you think you could do a video on how to get the proper temps in a glass tank? Maybe tips and tricks to get the tank to the parameters you need?

You StolE my line XD: "Nobody wants them" "Guess I'm nobody" This was a really helpful video! Thank you for having such good content

Yes, a vid for budget reptile keepers 😂

I love geckos! If someone would tell me where I can find a Namib sand gecko that would be great!

Definitely good video plz do other sizes!!

I love the video. question for the green anoles, are you not going to have buy crickets bit more often ?

I’m surprised he didn’t say a dekay’s brown snake

Yes...20 gallon long. 40 gallon breeder would be awesome too!

Yes! Do a series

omg I opened youtube just now *specifically* to see if you had a 10 gallon reptiles video, cause if not I was gonna ask
