I would give the scientific name, there are many named this as a generic name all having different requirements. Finding out what Country they are from can also be helpful if no name given by seller.

The only thing my guys would eat beside insects were banana.

They are neat little guys though, I ended up getting 4 babies out of my colony.

well,
dwarf sungazers, at least in the US, is the common name for C. gigantus, we usually call those Armadillo Lizards.

Cordylus tropidosternum

Forest Armadillo Lizards, Tropical Girdle Tail Lizards... They have a few different names, they aren't true armadillo lizards, they are girdle tail lizards.
