Hello Forum, I post on here way to much, anyways i have some major questions! I'm going to Petsmart on Monday and I just got a BIG tank, and I just got paid today so I would like to do this right the first time.

What are some of the major things I need for him? I have a decent sized rock hide for him. I have a food dish, bedding, rocks, and lots of sticks for him to crawl on.

I plan on getting a nice sized pool so he is able to swim in it (How big should one of these pools be for this aquarium size)?

Should I worry about a heating pad? A basking light?

What are some things I should get?
