Hey I'm new here and am looking for any info you guys can give me. I want to get a gecko and I've never had one before there is a panther gecko at a pet store near me that I want but before I do I need to know what it needs so basically I'm looking to get info such as tanks size and what they need such as heat lamps and stuff. Thanks.

Welcome to the GeckoTalk community!
I'd go with a 20 gal for your panther gecko. You'll need to maintain a warm end from 85 to 90 degrees F and a cool side no lower than about 70 degrees. Make sure you maintain humidity of 70% or higher and provide a humid hide and water at all times.

Ok thanks. What about food?

Think about googling "panther gecko care" and reading some care sheets. That may get you more complete answers than what can be posted on one thread. Panther geckos are frequently not too into being handled, so if you want something you can handle, you may want to consider something else.
