Also, all i have for this tank is just a regular flourescent light. Is this all i need? I am going to get a under tank heater to make a warmer side, but do these geckos need and more light, or any light at night?

Since they're nocturnal light isn't that important to them. I have a fluorescent light for viewing and an UTH on the one end of the tank. I also have a 40 watt ceramic heat emitter over the middle of the tank that warms some of the rocks that they like to rest on. I only turn this on during the cooler months of the year since they live in my basement. I'll try to get some pics of the tank this week if I get the chance.
