Hi im new here and do not own a tegu but plan on getting one from varnyard soon... I wanted to know how often do u guys replace the substrate and how often to u clean the whole enclosure or tank? Also what do you use to clean the tank and whats best way to clean it ? Mine is going to be housed inside a smaller tank from store whatever vanyard tells me to get and then i will either buy something much much bigger or build one with my friend.

thank you. I have been doing extensive research on tegus and didnt take long to here about varnyard so i gave him a call and he was extremely helpful ... I was thinking i had to clean the substrate once a week but once a month sounds a lot easier LOL... I was actually looking into getting a monitor or iguana I wanted one for a long long time and finally started looking into getting one and then read something on tegus and fell in love with how smart and cute they are and much more friendly.... thanks again

If you are spot cleaning your tank daily (cleaning up the dryed up urates and poo) then u honestly dont even need to change the cypress or w.e substrate once a month...I do it like once every 3 lol and its fine. The urates and poo dry up and then you just reach in and remove it and it keeps the cage pretty clean and smell free.
