I'd assume he was speaking of <i>Gekko vittatus</i>.
This care sheet is decent:

The only thing I disagree with is the minimum they recomend for enclosure size. These geckos are much like tokays, and as such are VERY active critters (at night!). I wouldn't house even one in anything remotely less then a 33 gallon turned on end (taller than wider).

they have the appearance of a day gecko thats for sure.

You really think so? They have completely different eyes, color, skin texture and build. I mean, other then being a gecko...

not in the coloring, i mean just in its physicue(sp?). Look at the eyes, i think they resemble that of a day gecko, but remember, im just stating my opinion.
