I recently picked up a group to sell and am really becoming attached to these things.I have set them up individually in small tanks with the soil/bark substrate and a small potted philodendron plant.Humidity between 66-90% and temps from 68-80.I am curious about others experiences,like caging,feeders and various husbandry information.

Hi!
I don't keep gracilis and I don't have any personal experiences with them.
The only information I have, is from a friend who imported and sold some here in Europe.
I was interested in them, but since I can't keep temperatures very low during the hot months, I was kind of cautious about buying them.
He told me that they come from the area with rather low temperatures and that I would need to keep them even colder than my masobe.
If that's true, the temperatures you keep them at might be a little too high for them. But I'm just guessing.
Regards, Matjaz

Thank you for your reply.I checked mt temp/hygro guage and recorded highs are 76f and lows are 64f so it looks pretty good right now.It will too be warming up here in the next few weeks,so if they are not purchased before then,I will hang onto them and will move them to another room that stays cooler.Thank you again,MARCUS.

I have a pair of P.gracilis. I have found them to be one of my more entertaining geckos. They are very active at night and they chirp/growl a lot.
I am keeping mine in a 10 gallon rubbermaid with two cork bark tubes and two slabs laid across the ground with two fake pothos plants as well. They make use of the tubes the most.
They have been feeding on crickets and dubia for me. They don't seem particularly fond of the dubia in comparison to the crickets.
Temps are around 72 day time with night time drops into the 60's. They really like it super humid. Wetter is better.
PM me if you have any more questions.
