Hey guys!

I saw that in many elok-tanks it looks quite dry.
What humidity do you prefer?

I keep my tanks open screen top and mist them once a day. I'll soak their cage down once every couple of weeks. I actually don't measure the humidity in those tanks. I'm keeping them pretty much like the A. felinus, except I think they can tolerate lower humidity levels.

I think proper ventilation is very important to C. elok.

I keep humidity high with moist (not wet) peat on the bottom and open air/screen tops. They do not need the higher humidity like some of the others of the genus like Crystal stated and actually seem to do better. I figure they probably come from seasonal habitat or at least a somewhat cooler and dryer climate.

Sounds interesting.

I heard that german keepers spray 2 times per day and let the humidity grow up to 80%. I keep my first elok trio for 4 days, they doing well. I checked, that my eloks prefer dryer corners. Additional link on clima:

Eat your eloks snails :P ?
Thanks for your replies

If I could find exact local on all of my geckos I would do one of those searches and be spacific on exact location, like East side of slope, altatude, valley or canyons, types of trees, plants or rocks etc. You can gain a general location like that but it is limited as more of a book cover, leaving out all the pages. I would say those percentages are somewhat lower than the 90% found in the wet jungles below. Also there is the brevipalmatus and elok both similar but covering most likely different habitat. If our captives are of both species and/or have seperate locals, we might have geckos with different requirements.
