Hi Frankie. Good to have you here. There are many experienced and helpful keepers on this forum. Perhaps more specific questions, rather than a request for tips in general might get a better response. What would you like to know? Have you read through this?

Welcome to the forum, Frankie. The general care sheet the James gave you the link to has great information on housing , feeding and husbandry. I'm sure you'll find it very helpful. If there are other questions, post them and we will be happy to help.
