Viper Geckos

I'm interested in acquiring some Viper Geckos, but I'm finding conflicting information in online care sheets and was hoping I could get some guidance from some people who actually keep them.

In particular, what temps should they be kept at (I've heard anything from 85-97 on the warm side) and should they be provided with a humid hide?

I'm hoping to get a trio and house them on Vitasand (Vitamin-Fortified Calcium Carbonate Substrate by Zoomed). I've read sand is okay. I thought about the VitaSand because a couple of caresheets I found mentioned calcium carbonate substrate which I believe that's what the VitaSand is. What about the Reptisand by Zoomed? I was also considering Bed-a-Beast.

I plan to feed crickets and waxworms and was wondering if I might also try silkworms and butterworm.

Any tips/advice would be appreciate. Thanks!
