My first gecko

[sde09001]

So after seeing a young gargoyle gecko on another forum I'm on (one for fish) I had to get one. After about a month of research and planning I finally took the leap. It's been two days since I got the little bugger (it's name is Zul, not sure of the sex yet as it's still young) and gave it a home in a nicel'y decorated 10g aquarium. Sadly I've run into a few problems, mostly with food (got Flukers crested gecko diet thinking it was the same thing as the repashy) and the little bugger not seeming to want to eat (yet still pooped this morning). Anyway here are a few pics of the little one, Enjoy!
Zul!

the tank needs to be taller then longer. You need more branches for it and he looks to small t be in there u should keep him in the critter keeper.

I currently keep my young ones (7-10grams) in 10 gallons and babies (1.5-6grams) in large KKs. For the size of you cute little garg, I'd say a 10 gallon should be ok as long as you have it decorated accordingly and it has no problems finding it's food/water. Your set-up looks pretty good, I would only recommend adding either some vines, branches or bamboo sticks for it to climb on also.

Once your little has reached 15-20 grams you could move it into it's adult enclosure, which you will want to be at least 18-24" tall....mine love height, so all of mine get either 24" or 30" tall enclosures.
