You can feed them in the separate container, so your pellets will not contaminate the main tank.

If for visual just normal lighting from aquarium or lighting store will be good enough !!

If for well-being add
- a heat lamp for heating up for ease of digestion ( easily replaced with heater for aquatic sp )
- a UVA/UVB type bulb or tube for producing vitamin D 3 for growth/hardening bone ( can also be replaced with powdered supplement )

Cheers

Ya am from Sabah !!

Harvest in KK pretty good , Len yu and Burong wong in Sandakan , Jin Jin in Tawau !!

Harvest is stockist for exxo terra , supply all over Sabah but don't keep much stock ( supply on demand/order )

Livestock wise depends but most don't stock too ( as most don't know how to take care )

Poo eating is quite common especially with underfed or partly digested poo involved !! Yak but true
Most reptilian hatchlings do that !!
