What’s the difference between reptile water conditioner and any other kind of water conditioner life fish
Reptile water conditioner usually contains chemicals such as Water, Dechloraminating Agents, Synthetic Organic Polymers (Colloids), Chelating Agents, Electrolytes. The reptile conditioner usually also has a chemical that binds calcium in the water as well as a slime protecting agent that is good for amphibians and fish. Aquarium water conditioners (for fresh water fish) contains chemicals such as sulfates such as sodium thiosulfate. Thiosulfate is a Redox reducing agent. Either should be ok for reptiles or fish, however I would stick with reptile conditioner for reptile tanks or mixed (reptile and fish) tanks and for aquaria with fish only I would use specific aquarium water conditioner. The main reason to use a water conditioner is to remove chlorine in water. This, however, can also be attained by leaving the aquarium water fresh from the tap sitting over night. The chlorine will dissipate.

I just want to know if my tank looks ok and if I might need anything else. P.S. the temperature isn't as high because I just connected the lights because I was cleaning the tank. The grass is fake btw
Ideally, the UVB light source should run the entire length of the tank. A thermometer/hygrometer should be on each end of the tank to confirm cool and warm sides. Use a digital thermometer to verify temps. Those little ones you have can be inaccurate. Provide a hide on both sides as well. Personally, I would remove the fake grass as it has the potential to cause eye injuries. Your tank looks good otherwise.

I have a lizard that got out of his cage and was missing ... we found him about a week ago. He is very skinny and won't open his eyes. He's not eating or drinking. I just got home tonight and his laying in the water bowl and has lost his tail. I don'
Have him examined by your veterinarian or an experienced herp vet to diagnose and treat any infection related to the loss of the tail. In the meantime, increase tank temps by about 5-10 degrees F, soak daily in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte for 20 minutes. Once he warms up and rehydrates, offer appropriately sized prey. Gutload prey for 24 hours prior to offering to maximize nutritional value. Supplement with a product such as Fluker's Repti-Boost to get weight back on him. You can clean the stump with diluted betadine or chlorhexidine. Use paper towels for substrate until the stump is healed.

My beared dragon isn't eating at all and has taken a very luiqidy poop im really worried he's a year old please let me know what to do I can't afford to pay for a vet
Check temps in the enclosure. Low temps can affect appetite and digestion in reptiles. Survey the area in and around the cage for any negative stimuli. Stress can lead to loose droppings. A stool sample should be submitted to diagnose parasites. Ideally, he should be seen by your veterinarian. If this is not possible, limit fruits and vegetables in the diet temporarily. You can feed greens and prey. Consider a probiotic to promote gut health. Soak him in a warm 50/50 solution of water and unflavored PediaLyte to treat or prevent minor dehydration.

1)Raptor didnt shed real well because he only shed his back legs and neck. 2)Both of his eye are shut. 3)green liquid on his enclosure bedding.
Soak Razor in warm water for 15-20 minutes. Gently rub off any loose shed but do not pull or tear at it. If he is wiggly, you can place him in a small container with paper towels moistened with warm water for 15-20 minutes. The moist heat and humidity should help with the shed. Make sure he can breathe in the container. You can put this moist hide in his enclosure so he has a place to go when he is shedding. Monitor his stool and submit a sample to your vet to diagnose intestinal parasites if you see more "green liquid".
