today i bought a 29 gallon aquarium and i have a UVB bulb on the cage and i got a lot of hanging plants.

the crested i bought today is pretty much full grown and i also have a baby crested which is about a month or 2 old so i was wondering if i could put them together. the small one is in a taller exo-terra cage

i was also wondering how how the aquarium should be because the guy at the pet store said that room teperature is good and that they are temparate

NO deff do not put them together with a noticeable size difference....If you have an almost full grown crested and a one month old, there is a huge chance of canabalism, it wont look at the smaller gecko as just one of his kind but as potential food....If i were you id deff. keep them seperate.....

yah, i figgured, i mean there is a considerable age difference but i would it be ok to breed them when they get the same size and if they are obviously male and female. they both should be about 2 years old before u bread right?

I dont think that you can sex a 2 month old crested gecko. A female should be at least 12 months (id rather say 14) and 35 grams or more. The later the better for the female.
