lighting you don't need anyways, humidity should stay constant in your tank normally, just leave them some worms and water. They'll be fine as long as they have heat

should i constantly keep the heating light running for 3 days straight and should the mealworms be put in a separate bowl??

Do you have an under thank heater or are you only using a basking light for warmth? If you are only using a light then you need to invest in an under tank heater, because Leopard geckos require belly heat to properly digest their food. An adult gecko would be fine with out food for 3 days but you should have food available daily for younger geckos. you can buy a mealworm feeding dish to keep some worms available for them to eat or toss in enough crickets for the 3 days and leave some carrot in there for them to eat so they do not die.
