Help! Is my gecko okay?

[Monstera]

I just brought home my new crestie yesterday. He was super active last night exploring around. He has lots of hiding places and things to climb.

Today I noticed that he’s sort of sitting in a weird position and hasn’t moved. He’s still breathing but he’s lying almost on his side with his legs just kind of stuck in the air. Is something wrong with him? Does his tank need to be hotter/cooler? More or less humidity? Is he stressed or sick?

I had provided food (Pangea fig and insect) and water for his arrival last night. His tank is at about 68F at night and 72F during the day (for winter). Humidity usually sits between 65-75% and can jump up to low 80s after misting.

Your crestie is nocturnal. He was active last night because it was his awake time and also, most geckos placed into a new environment spend a bunch of time exploring until they feel they recognize the new territory. Now it's daytime and he's probably sleeping. The thing is, cresties don't have eyelids so you can't really tell when they're sleeping. It's likely he'll get active at night again, or, he may feel that he "knows" his environment and be less active. My cresties often spend a bunch of time at night hanging on the glass without moving much.
