I'm considering one. :D
Just got a few questions.
I've heard 10g is a good tank size, would this be for 1? or two?
How much would a regular from a petstore cost?
How much would one like this cost?

I'm guessing they eat crickets? Are there alternatives to crickets?
What kind of heat/basking lamp do they need?
 
I say 10g is fine for 1, 20g or more is ideal. At petstores you can usually find them for around 20 bucks, but you can get one for a good deal from Vicious_fish. They eat crickets but you can do meal worms or super worms or horned worms. They aren't too picky. Heating you can have an undertank heater as well as a heat lamp. Make sure the heat lamp is red because other colors may stress them. You may want to get a temp gun to measure the temps.
 
we cant do all the looking for you but yes, the higher the quality the higher the price
 
sorry, I'm not asking you to search for me, just asking about prices...
 
i haz those. i payed 1k ea a few years back when they just came out. look on urban gecko they have really nice ones.
 
no prob but all of those sites can offer pricing but for a low grade but nice leo you are looking at twenty to fifty
try looking for a reptile expo near you and go and you can find geckos at good prices
 
yeah, that's what I was thinking. Once I get a tank setup, I'll look at reptile shows for some low grade but nice looking ones.
