    i bought my dbt tonight and when i got home, i put her in the aquarium and it started leaking. my friend gave it to me, so she’s in a cooler until i can get a new aquarium tomorrow after work. i’m worried about her b/c the water gets cold and i’m worried she might get to cold and die or something…any tips or anything would be appreciated.

    Just keep her indoors and above 60 or so if she is not hibernating.

    A submersable heater in a plastic set-up w/ water is fine if you are concerned w/ the plastic melting. If you don’t have one you can use a heating blanket under a regular plastic container. I don’t think it would work on the cooler since it is insulated. Keith tyestixx wrote:

    Should have said a heating pad. Keith Keith Boissoneau wrote:
