My whiteline geckos have red dots on them, starting at the bottom half of their bodies. When they appeared, they had dark spots with the red dots in the center of the spots. Does anyone know what this is or how to treat it?
Thanks

This does not sound good. Without pics it's hard to visualize the spots. Do the spots move? If so, they might be some type of mite. If not, perhaps some type of fungal or bacterial infection. I've had fungal stuff going on with golden geckos during past summers: heat and humidity in a damp tank is the perfect breeding ground for microscopic creepy-crawlies. Your best bet is to have them seen by a herp vet for diagnosis and advice. Best of luck--
