that is perfect especially for only 1 gecko they dont really need heat tho room temp around 75 is perfect too much heat is stressful and the humidity gauge should be up high in a corner somewhere but that really is a gorgeous gecko but i have the same tank its 12inch by 12 inch by 18 inch and its perfect

12x12x18 is only about 10 gallons. the minimum for one adult gecko is 20 gallons tall. that tank will need to be upgraded in the future but it is good for a baby.

also you need digital humidity and temp gauges. the ones like what you have are not accurate.

why do you have a heat light on your crestie cage? unless your house temp is below 68* F you should not need any kind of extra heat.

samspade

you do know that tokays tend to be mean right? and when they bite on they dont let go until they feel like it. i personally think you should keep your second crestie alive for a while before you attempt to get another reptile of any kind. cresties are some of the easiest reptiles i have had.

did you ever find out why your first crestie died?

i highly doubt he died from the car ride. my gecko was shipped from cali and she has been fine. unless the car ride was like off roading or something and he really got banged around i dont think that would do it.
