Hello, I was wondering if it is possible to have a communal setup with african giant millipedes and white lined geckos, I know people have had success doing this with rhacodactylus geckos, but I have never heard of it being done with any other type of geckos, could there be a reason for this. Thanks in advance

I do this since many many years (Archispirostreptus).
No problem.

Cheers

In go

Thank you for the reply, I find the idea of having Millipedes with geckos pretty awesome so this is certainly good news.

Won't the millipedes eat the hatchlings? If you plan to have any, that is...

[Ingo]

No, other way round. Sometimes the adult geckos prey on juvenile milipedes despite of their bad taste.
But they never eat all.

Cheers

P.S.: Of course the tank should be large enough. 65g and up.

[aragin08]

65g, wow I would have thought something like 30 high for a milipede and gecko.

[Ingo]

There is still adifference in housing philosophy between european and US herpers.
So you may decide. I personally think, 30g is borderline even for a small single vittatus.

Cheers
