Default looking for help with cyrtodactylus intermedius

hi all,
I just bought a pair of C. intermedius, currently about 8-10 inches total lenght.

But despite searching all over the net, and looking in all of my book im having a lot of trouble getting the right info about how to care for this species.
Can anyone help me out? id really be happy to see maybe a few setup pics, and id like to hear about their preffered temperature and humidity.

Currently im keeping the pair in a smaller terrarium with cork as deko, and pinebark as substrate, i just picked them up today, but i have seen them drink water from the glass, and they seem to be in good condition.
im feeding them various insects, mostly 2 species of roaches and crickets., offcourse dusted in vitamins and calcium.

Any help is apreciated

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Kenneth

Don't get their cage too wet as this will cause other problems, but misting lightly over their face will get them to drink if concerned about hydration. Also use bottle or treated water, not strait tap. Keep a clean dish of water full and they will find it at night most likely.
keep around 77F (68-82), and keep slightly humid but not wet. If your not using a soil/peat or other moisture holding medium like the bark, a light misting once a day in the evening will work...skip days if getting too wet. A warm spot helps, but dont let it over heat your cage more than 80F in the coolest hide.
