Default Gekko grossmanni that doesn't want to eat

Hello everyone
On the February 16th 2008 I bought a female of Gekko grossmanni. She is about 16-18 cm long. I keep her in the tank that is: 50cm wide, 25cm deep and 30cm high. In the night the temperature is about 20 Celcjus degrees and during the day it's about 25-35 (it depends where in the tank) and in the spot it's about
For the first two weeks she was with a male in the tank, but I seperated them because the male wasn't eating so I visited a vet couple times, she gave him some medicines but after couple weeks he has died. I cleaned the tank and put her there again, and she was eating everyday. But since last week she doesn't want to eat anything. The only think she does is resting in the wormest place in the tank where is about 35 degrees and drinking water from the wall. She's totally not interested in worms that I put to the tank. The humidity is about 60-80% - it changes during the day.
She "changed" / "lost" (I don't know the correct word for this in english) her skin on the March 11th.
Can somebody tell me what's wrong with her? What can be the reasons for why she's not eating anything?

Also, last week I bought a male of Gekko grossmanni and I put him to the other tank. He started to eat the day after I bought gim, but 3 days ago he stopped eating. I fed him with crickets. The tank with him is at my girlfriend's house , so there are two different places and both of my gekkos doesn't want to eat.

If you suppose why they don't eat, please give me some advices about my gekkos.

Here are pictures of my female G. grossmanni


Best regards
Marek

From what you have said I would try and raise the temps even more and only offer it food every 3rd night. If they dont eat over night take the crickets back out. Then wait another 2-3 days. Sooner or later they will get hungry. Then when they start to eat only offer them food every other night and take out the crickets they dont eat the next day.

You also might try offering pinky mice and see if they might take those.
