Haven't bought the gecko yet but want to show you what setup I'm using for its home.
This is in a 18x18x18 exoterra. I thought it was too small so I used insulation boards to make a 10x18x4 hide with a flat platform to increase the available space. I made a rough-up ramp using a gas lighter so there's easy access for the gecko. The platform has its moist hide (currently empty in pic), a light gray food bowl, and a two-in-one bowl for calcium as well as water.
I have two probed thermometers: one for the hot side and one for the cool side. The probes for the hot side thermometer and the thermostat is in the same area under the hide. I'm using a BAH-1000DC Thermostat in conjunction with a 14x8 Intellitemp Reptile Heat Mat. I also have a 25W light above to help raise the cage's ambient temp.
