my newest gecko and tank
well my g-friend went out boxingday shopping and brought home this for me.... hes really cute but i would have liked to do more reasearch first.... i was lucky that most of the stuff needed i already had...







they say hes a central american banded gecko.... hes about 5-6" and hes full grown.... hes tiny...

and i went out and bought this tank for 45 bucks... its a 40 gal brand new in a box.... it was supposed to be 79, it was 74 on sale but the girl screwed up and just punched in that it was a rectangle tank.... at least i think.... she said "ya thats right" like i thought it was to much... so i wasnt argueing ...lol... there will be a trio of cresties.....

....

thanks for lookin.... happy holidays

I find the CA banded geckos like privacy, and are prone to stress. So lots of hiding spots. They also like it far more humid than leos do. I supplied my group with a moist hide, and I also misted them lightly every night.

You could contact Nathan, aka Geckoboy here on ssnakess. He breeds them and is very knowlegable. Good luck with it, they are an amazing species
