I have a 9 shoebox rack system that I got from Chris over at C Serpents. I know for hatchlings and juvies this is plenty of room. I do have 1 female (thanks Travis) that is over 100g, but my 9 sweater box rack won't be here for another week or so. My question is: What do you use for water and/or calcium that they wont' tip over? I haven't been putting a water dish in there lately cause they spill it but then when I mist them they lick the sides of the boxes like they are dying for water. I know they aren't used to a lot of water but I don't want them going without either.

Put something like a plastic lid with high enough sides then put your containers in that. I use a pretty solid water dish and I bought feeder trays, looks like a rock with a hole on top and the top also comes off, and I put a bottle cap of calcium in that rock ill put pictures tomorrow.

I use three different kinds. Glass candle holders (2.5" wide & 1.5"tall), glass ash trays (4"wide & 1"tall), and ceramic dishes (4.25"wide & 1"tall). All are from walmart between $.50 and $2.00 each. My largest gecko is 85 grams and he has never tipped any of these over.
