Just picked him up and set him in my hand, about 15 minuts a day he was only like 2 inches long, he would bark and me and bite when i got to close, and eventually he would just start breathing hard but not biting then he just let me hold him and he is happy. The taming took about 5-7 months, and i think the stress from it stunted his growth a little, but hes about 10 months old now, and growing real fast.

The middle of the tank was looking a little empty and i couldn't find a decent plant to fill the space!

I randomly came across it in a garden centre and thought it would fit in an Asian kind of theme seeing as that's where they come from, it filled the gap nicely and looked little different so i decided to keep it.

The geckos seem to like it too, the male has made it his perch/basking spot and sits on top of it watching me in the evenings
