Where Palm Trees Grow
I am a very big fish keeper and I never really liked keeping reptiles but when I was geting some feeders at Petco I saw a crested gecko and he looked so cool and fun to have. Soon i would like to get a 30 gallon tank for one but I wanted to get some info from people who have owned some :headbang2
 
Same thing happened to me, you won't regret it. http://www.ciliatus.com this site will provide all the info. I recommend you start with a smaller tank though if you get a juvie.
 
i have 5 cresties there amazing and really not that hard to take care of i breed mine if you get a juvie 20 high is perfect for them and you can house up to 3 in there

heres a good site crestedgecko.com
 
They are really cool and you will have alot of fun with the setup. And they are one of the easiest pets to care for. Ive had a few. But they werent very active. I never even saw mine eat. And they are excellent escape artists. Mine got out once and I got a huge scare from it. Mostly because the people in the house would kill me if they found out it was out. Also all my friends with cresteds have had the same experience. And im the most careful person when it comes to having my herps out. My family hates them and its my head if they wake up to a gecko on them. Just be careful!
 
They are very easy to take care of. Depending on where you live you can keep them at room temp. A definite plus.

Same thing with mine they hate all reptile pets including the alligator snapping turtle I wanted and they might not even let me get one right now. I think they have to see that I am responsible with the fish I have first.
