Some UTH's get too hot for rubbermaid. I have used the smallest UTH's (1-5 gallons without a problem, but you will definitely need a rheostat or a thermostat to keep it from getting too hot and melting the plastic (that much heat will be too hot for the gecko). Now I assume you're talking about a leopard gecko. As far as I can tell you would set up a rubbermaid quarantine the same way as a tank: dry hide,humid hide, water dish, calcium, food bowl, etc. Put a cover on and drill holes all around the side below the cover for ventilation.
