So CAl.
So am a new guy to reptiles and really want to get a gecko but dont know which one to get i am leaning towards the Crested gecko. The TERRARIUM am think about getting is Exo Terra Glass Terrarium (12" x 12" x 18"). how many gecko could i keep in this size tank? what type of gecko would work the best in this tank? thank in advance
 
I just bought the exact same tank yesterday, really isn't big enough for gecko.... I don't think, floor space is pretty sucky, be better for a more arboreal type set-up like the crested.

Do you want a display gecko or something you can hold too?
both. know am think of getting the 18*18*18. and another ?? what do you guys/gals prefer the ZOO-MED GLASS TERRARIUMS or The Exo Terra Glass Terrarium? theirs a big price difference does Exo just looks nicer?
 
I will say that my tank the exo terra it was 18 by 18 by 18 not 12,12,18 ( uk people usually work in cm's lol ) it's very well made for the price, once problem I spot is that there is a slight gap about 4mm in the door so live food could escape.
 
I think Exo Terras are much nicer than the Zoomed one. The 2 doors are a big plus over the large single one on the Zoomed. I've also heard bad things about the Zoomed door hinge and the locking mechanism.
 
okay so am pretty sure i will be getting the crested gecko now i just have to pick out what morph i like the best. still undecided on tank the exo terras do look nice but are alot more expensive then the zoo med.
