leopards do not need light at all, however a cycle of just regular room or daylight is always good so you dont get insomniacs. they need to be at about 88-90 is always better. i dont ever try to let mine go any lower then 80 degrees at night. calium or vitamin powder is also very important to dust their food with or leave a dish of it in there. it is always best to have 10 gallons per every gecko and of course that means long not tall. do not use sand or any loose substrate!! i would also recomend housing babies seperate until adult hood and i also just recomend housing them sepperate period. this is all my opinion and you will find that it differs from other peoples. best thing is is just do some more reading like on goldengategeckos, vmsherp, urbangecko, and many many more great websites. some are old though and say its okay to use sand but dont. all the other stuff is about the same. good luck.
