Wondering what YOUR geckos favorite thing in your tank is??

**danar1977** · 12-03-2010, 10:13 AM

I am just curious what everyone's geckos seem to like the most in their terrariums or tanks? This will be nice for anyone new knowing what to buy or look for and also for all of us building new terrariums or looking for new things to add!

Mine differ tank to tank, my male hides behind his large mopani wood that is stationed in the back of the tank against the wall. When the females are in there they do the same. My other terrariums I do not have much hiding spaces and that is what I am looking to change, since they seem to like to hide during the day. The favorite in my other tanks is the instavines....they cling int he middle of the cluster like crazy little terds!

My male loves to sit under his mushroom ledge. I just recently raised it a little off the floor and ever since I did he's been sleeping under it with some leaves. If he's not there, then he'll be in his 7oz plastic hide.

My baby has a hide, but she prefers to sleep on top of it. It indents a little, so she's kinda like a cat sleeping in a sink!

Mine love taking huge dumps in their water dishes, it's great. I think mine would like to have flush toilets but I haven't gotten the plumbing worked out yet.

She's either on top of it or in it and the other two are usually curled up together in a fake lily on the other side of the tank

They really seem to like their rock cave the most during the day, and the mushroom ledge at night.

That's cute! I have a bunch of fake Cala lillies for Splats big boy cage in the hope that he'll sleep in them! They looks so cute asleep in a lily, so I really hope he does! He sleeps on the floor under his leaves at the moment, bless him!

Mine like tall corkbark flats that go to the top of the cage as well as the Ampollo sticky plants. Also they really like the way I do my lay boxes. Sometimes they will sleep behind them and sometimes in them.

JB- let me know when you have worked out the plumbing. I'll need to get some installed in my tanks as well.

Each gecko is different.

But, a lot of my geckos like to sleep in the foliage, specifically the Magnetic hanging jungles.

I have a female who sits on top of the coconut hide and just watches the scenery.

Another that loves the hide inside a wood/flower fake plant thing and play peekaboo.
