If you are going to go with a naturally planted terrarium, I'd stick to amphibians. Pothos is about the only plant to survive the dim light situation amphibians prefer. You'll be buying crickets or other bugs to feed them. Dust the food with the appropriate supplement first.
I've never known Tokay Geckos to do well when confined. They do great if you give them the run of the house and have a bug problem. They'll be happy behind a refrigerator in the kitchen. The new captive born ones on the market these days probably don't have feeding issues while confined. I'd recommend artificial plants in any landscaped terrarium housing reptiles. Same feeding advise as before.
