i have read that a 10 gal is acceptable for a pair, but after seeing mine grow into hers, i'd feel more comfortable in a 20 gal. they arent very active (although mine has turned out be more bold) so maybe they are ok in a smaller enclosure, but i like to try and give them more than whats 'acceptable'.

I keep mine in trios in a 30" tank with slidding doors.

They can stay in smaller enclosures since they aren't that active, but bigger is good too. I like to give them a huge hide.. their hide is allmost tha size of a 10 gallon tank

Nice cage - im happy to see some people dont go for 'as small as possible'

Having sadu that many geckos seem to like a relatively small hide, where they fell secure because the fell the 'walls' surrounding them on all sides. Im sure a large hide does no harm but an alternative idea would be to give them several smaller hides. This woudl also make it possible to have a 'hot' and a 'cold' hide.

Also they really like to climb. Adding a few branches or large peace of bark against the back wall would be good. That would also make better use of such a large cage.

How big is a 10gal tank in inches?
Also how important is it to provide climbing branches for gonio's?

Thanks for the replies
