I think it would be fine. For one gecko, I do 10 gal, so 20 should be fine. Just make sure they don't have to fight over hide spots, or food.

What kind of gecko Matt?

Depends on the gecko... For 2 tokays, definitely not big enough. For two micro geckos, too big.
But assuming you're refering to leos (in which case this should be posted in the leopard gecko forum :]) then yet 20gallons is fine. The rule I use and I think works pretty well is 15 gallon for the first gecko, and 5galls extra for each additional gecko (1 gek = 15 gals, 2 = 20, 3 = 25 etc).

Provide enough hide spots, food, and a good temperature range.

i know this is kind off topic, but would a 30 gallon be big enough for 2 fat-tailed geckos?

Yes it would! I follow the same rule of tank sizes with fat-tails.
