What gecko to choose?

Hey guys, hoping this is the right place. This is kind of an introduction/questionare. I've never kept a gecko, but at the moment I keep 2 chameleons, and 4 bearded dragons. I have every intention on breeding most of what I get, and eventually finding what I prefer. I would at least like something where the offspring can pay to feed what I breed, I couldn't care less if I made a penny.

I think geckos are really cool, and have decided that it's most likely what I'm picking up at a reptile expo next weekend, and I'm really having trouble deciding what exactly which species I'd like.

I was definitely thinking cresteds or gargs, or even getting a leachianus if the price is right. I love the idea of not needing to feed feeders(for the most part) and not needing heat/uvb. My reptile room at the moment sits around 75 degrees or a bit higher all day effortlessly, if that helps. At the moment I'm looking at:

Crested
Gargoyle
Nephruru(Knob tailed)
Leachianus

And am definitely open to suggestions for awesome animals in general. I have superworm and roach colonies so I can support a insectivore.

For a breeding group, I've seen most common would be 1.2, or even 1.3? Is this correct for the most part? I plan on keeping them in seperate enclosures, probably Rubbermaid bins unless it's a leachie, and perhaps even then.

Thanks a lot guys!
