Bioactive Crested Gecko Shopping List

Hello! I’ve recently bought a crested gecko from Tiki’s Geckos and I have been trying to build an appropriate shopping list for a bioactive terrarium for him. I still need to figure out what I want to do for hardscape but I’m planning on looking around in person.

If you have the chance, please look over my current shopping list. I’ve done a bunch of research on various sources and products for each category, but if anyone has better suggestions or ideas I’d love to hear them. Let me know if I’m missing anything!

I’ve also attached my recipe for DIY substrate, I’m following SerpaDesign’s mix on youtube. https://youtu.be/bmSr17J2jho?is=H7IwptMYWwMyUINY

Thank you!

PC hangs after BIOS, white VGA light, but GPU displays BIOS normally. Running Ryzen 1600 on ASUS TUF B550-PLUS WiFi II

Some context:

I originally started having boot/crashing issues with a Ryzen 7 5800X3D. I replaced my MSI B550 Tomahawk with an ASUS TUF B550-PLUS WiFi II because I suspected the motherboard. The problem returned on the new board after about 30 minutes, so I opened an RMA with AMD for the 5800X3D and temporarily installed an old Ryzen 5 1600 that I had.

The 1600 has been running for the last two days and I was able to game normally without any crashes.

Today I restarted the PC from Windows and it never came back. The screen went black, the PC stayed powered on, and my keyboard shut off. Since then I've been troubleshooting.

My current hardware:

  • GB Corsair DDR4

Current symptoms:

  • Power on sequence is DRAM → CPU → VGA
  • System often hangs on a white VGA debug LED
  • Monitors show no signal
  • Keyboard loses power
  • Fans continue spinning

Important observations:

  • Clearing CMOS reliably gets me back into BIOS.
  • The GPU displays BIOS perfectly every time I get in.
  • BIOS detects the CPU, RAM, SSD, and Windows Boot Manager.
  • Before the update I received a message saying: "The VGA card is not supported by UEFI driver" and "CSM settings have been changed for better compatibility."
  • After the BIOS update that message disappeared.
  • CSM is currently disabled.
  • If I use Boot Override and select Windows Boot Manager, the screen goes black, the keyboard shuts off, and the system hangs while remaining powered on.

Things I've already tried:

  • Reseating GPU
  • Reconnecting GPU power
  • Reseating RAM
  • Booting with a single stick in A2
  • Multiple CMOS clears
  • BIOS update to latest version

- Booting to Windows installer (proof that it can boot something past bios), crashes after clicking Repair My PC

One thing that may be relevant: I realized after the fact that the Ryzen 5 1600 is not officially supported on this motherboard. However, it has been able to boot Windows and run games for the last two days.

Does this sound more like:

  1. GPU initialization issues?
  2. Corrupted Windows boot files?
  3. Something else I'm overlooking?

How can I fix this? Any ideas would be appreciated.
