Overhauled Hagrid's tank a few days ago and he seems to REALLY like it!!

Changed his cheap incandescent bulbs for an arcadia heat projector and 5% UVB light, tripled he amount of substrate and mixed it with paper bedding and wood shavings so it holds burrows, and reorganized his hides to give him more cover and a better basking area.

Since I changed his heat and gave him a UV light, he went from never basking to basking every day, and he actively basks under the UVB light a couple times a day. He's come such a long way from when he was first given to me...he's so much calmer, bolder, he almost never hisses at me...still has that hoggy personality of course, but he seems so much more confident.

Also pretty proud that he's never missed a meal (except for once which was my fault for not thawing it right) and has had two perfect sheds, as well!! Not bad, if I do say so myself. Now all I need to do is switch his analog thermometer for a digital one, and this little dude will be set. c:
