H.triedrus are pretty simple to care for. They like it hot. I keep the hot side of the enclosure a little cooler than some. Hot side is kept in the high 90’s and the cool side in the mid 70’s. The care is very similar to leopard geckos. However they do like it more humid. I mist the enclosures a few times a week. I provide several hides; one of them is filled with damp moss. Adults tend to be more terrestrial from my experience. Hatchlings and juveniles like to climb and will utilize any space you give them. They have huge appetites. The geckos I have tend to be very stubborn and like a variety of live prey items roaches, mealworms, crickets and others. I do not light the cages at all.
I could go into more detail, but you asked for basic.

Good luck,
Rob
