Is this Ok?

[Redstarfish]

Do I need more items or is this fine?

Just wondering if that is a light over the cool side? You may want to move it to the warm side, or your little one may get too warm and not have anywhere to go to get cooler. It's really not necessary at all, but if you prefer a light with a blue or red bulb for night viewing, you want it on the warm side. Just make sure your floor temp stays about 90-92. I may just not be seeing these things, but do you have:

-a thermometer (preferably one with a probe to read floor temp on your warm side above the UTH)?
-a moist hide?
-a dish for calcium (not everybody does this, but I like to provide one for all of my leos)?

Otherwise, the setup looks great!

It looks great. Just make sure you get what Mari told you. Those are what I noticed you didn't have. You don't need the light. For viewing your gecko at night a red buld is good and place it on the hot side of the tank.

I have a humidity and 2 regular thermomters and a moist hide.I put calcium on the crickets.

They really need more calcium than just a dusting on the food. You can just leave it in the food dish if you don't want a separate dish. Vitamins are fine for just dusting the crickets with once a week though.

With the regular thermometer, are you speaking about a stick on? If so, they aren't accurate. You may want to consider a digital thermometer with a probe. They're like $10 at the store or usually around $5 on eBay.

Also, where is the moist hide?

See the hide on the left?that's the humidity hide,because I keep it humid by putting moss in it and spraying it.

 

[goReptiles]

Oh. Well, then you should add a 2nd dry hide.

Got that now.:main_thumbsup: Thanks!Do I need a UTH?
:main_huh:

 

[MSMD]

I would definitely use a UTH. Leopard Geckos do best with belly heat. :main_yes:

 

[david13]

yes i would get a UTH, thats the way to go

When you use a UTH, don't forget to add a thermostat or rheostat to control the temp; otherwise it may get too hot.

Show me (somebody) a picture of a thermostat and a rheostat.I found online a $13 heater for a 10-20 gallon tank.

 

[Redstarfish]

Is a thermostat and a rheostat a requirment?I can only afford the heater atm.
