Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Stained & Lacquered ?
I have a piece of furniture (TV Stand) that I am thinking about turning into a tank for one of my dragons. The inside where the dragon will be is stained & lacquered. Will the stain & lacquer cause a problem for the dragon?
Thanks

Hello
Hello,
Yes, it will be fine. However, you need to allow at least 2 weeks for it to offgas & cure correctly so it wont give off fumes. So, other than that, it should be no problem, just allow for the curing time.

Here are a couple pics I took. This is what I have done so far. I tool off the legs and the handels. I did some sanding, and filled in some holes with wood putty/filler. I also cut out some vent holes in the back. I also went to the store and got the heat tight fixture and the UVB light fixture. Got a couple extention cords and the vents. Silicone, stain and lacquer. I think I have done enough work for today. I will work on it more tomorrow.
Thanks for looking,

Hello
Hello,
Wow, that is looking very good! It will be worth it when it is done. That is great you are allowing plenty of time for everything to dry & cure before putting your dragon in.
