I'd repost this in the Gecko forum. I'm no expert but I have kept cresteds before. If they are adults a 10 gallon is too small for a pair. I would use a bigger more vertically oriented tank like at least a 29 gallon. You don't say how long you've had them. If you just got them they may need some time to settle in. Give them a week or so and don't handle them. If they came from a pet store there is a good chance they are wild caught. I would take them, with a stool sample, for a vet checkup. Hope this helps a little.

over there. It's pretty active too. I just noticed it, I haven't been to the Gecko forum in a long time.
