Default Electric Blue Gecko questions, help please.

Hi guys,

I need some advice,
I'm looking at getting my first EBG (I'm in no rush), an I have a 24/7 heated reptile room which Varys from 85f-76f depending how high or low your measuring the temps in the room. So I was wondering would I really need a basking site for them? Can't they be kept the cresteds just with a UVB?
If I still do need a basking site what bulbs and controllers would you recommend? As I've never worked with anything so small.

Any help would be great,
Thanks, Daniel

With that kind of temperature variation in the room, the UVB fluorescent should put out enough heat for basking for them, without anything else.
I have mine set up that way, and they've been thriving for over a year.
