Looks nice! I would have a couple more branches near the top maybe... they really really like being up high. plus if you have the room then why not use it!

Very Nice! How big is it? I'm picturing HUGE b/c of the orchid... but I could be wrong. I like the set-up & your idea of more climbing places & vies. Cresties LOVE to climb everywhere. I Hope you little guy(s) enjoy it!!!

I'll be going out of town for 10 days in july....

how do you guys/gals handle trips?

only reason I ask is becasue of the age of the 2 geckos (still small)

I have a hard time leaving my geckos alone for 4 days, let alone 10. Do you have anyone that could look in on them & feed them/water them? Esp. being so young, I imagine they would not fare well unattended & unfed for 10 days. Any food left in the cage would go moldy (or, if crix, either die or attack your geckos) in that time.
As for puttigj them in the 40gal, I would hold off until they are bigger. They may have a hard time finding the food & staying adequately hydrated... but that is just my opinion. I may be wrong about that part. They'll def. enjoy the bigger cage once they get there tho!
