Gecko Idea for 15H

Hello,

Looking for a nice size gecko for my 15H tank. Not too small, ideally from arid climates and desert/rocky areas, which probably makes this pretty difficult

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Christoph

Re: Gecko Idea for 15H

Already have one And a 15H is not that ideal for a leo, it gets rather small.

Re: Gecko Idea for 15H

Re: Gecko Idea for 15H

And how about crested geckos? Looks like they would be okay in a 15H (the caresheet over at lllreptile.com says 20H for a pair), I already have the climbing stuff and leafs, and them not needing extra temp and being okay in moderate humidity makes that pretty easy. Right?

Re: Gecko Idea for 15H

Id say a crested gecko, vipers would do better in a 5 gallon or so.
