Question Pictus info

I am either going to get Tibetan Frog Eye or a pictus.

I need a few questions answered before i choose:

Are the social ex-is a pair or group 3/4 ok in a tank?

Tank size?

any personal experience or advice is amazing!

Some Pictus males have been known to kill female cagemates, it is almost always better to house geckos one to an enclosure except for breeding.

All breeding should be monitored to some extent to determine if the pair is ok with each other, they arent always.

my pictus geckos are the most gentle geckos. they all live together and never show any kind of agression with each other. i have 5 females and 1 male per tank. the girls get along very well. 1 male per tank though.tank size of 20 gal. plenty of bark hides cocoa fiber and leaf litter. uth also set on 90 degrees in 1 spot
