Yes, I know this is the bearded dragon forum, and I know I should post this there, but I feel a little more at home here and I noticed that many of you have leos.

Okay, I'm thinking about getting a leopard gecko or two after the new year, but I have a few questions.

-Will loud music scare or aggitate my leo? It's not really all that loud because the tank will be in my room on the second floor of the house, and I usually have band practice and play drums and stuff in the basment. My beardie doesn't seem to mind, but will they?

-Should the heat lamp be on day and night, or just day?

-How do you feed yours? Like, give me a basic runthrough of how you feed yours (what insects? In tank or out of tank? etc). Also , give me info on feeding babies as well assuming I get them as babies.

-would a 15 gallon tank be enough for 2, or just one? What's the minimum for two? I've heard a lot of diffent opinons, and a general lizard book I have says you can comfortably fit 1 male and 3 females in a 10 gallon tank, but that seems a little unbelievable.

-What do you prefer for floor covering? I use playsand for my beardie, but I wouldn't feel comfortable at all using it for leos. I was thinking carpet, paper towels, or shelf liners.

thanks in advance for those of you that take the time to answer some questions that clearly don't belong on a bearded dragon forum.
