what type of lizard should I get?

[Pierced Soul]

now I just gotta find some juvies

I noticed that some people keep those basking 'towers' in their enclosures to give the monitors a chance to choose their own gradient, others just use a branch for the basking spot. is it personal preference or is one clearly (well as clear as these things are) better than the other?

also are ridge tails the same thing as ackies?

ridge tails are indeed ackies i have an adult pair in a 4x2x2 enclosure and i think theres enough room for another female even, in my opinion the basking stacks are better as they can choose the temps they want to bask at and they also wedge themselves in there to make themselves feel secure

do the basking stacks need to be stuck together? if i just put tiles on top of rocks (or something similar) would the weight hold it down or am i looking at a collapse?
