Well it probably isn't good but I believe there was a similar post a couple days ago, where a person played loud music a lot and it didn't bother them...

I'm no expert, but I'd have to say they would get stressed out by noise/vibration.
I mean unless your gecko can talk, its hard to know if it bothers them or not. I'm just guessing here

I you didnt have room for it, why did you get it???? You should take the leo off of the radio and put it across the room...... Do you live in a shoe box???? How can you not have room for a ten gallon tank other than ontop of your radio???? Just sounds alittle weird to me...... Hey wait, I know, why dont you just clean up a corner in your room and put the tank there???? You might even be able to pick up a night stand at a garage sale for like 5 bucks..... Then you can even keep it off the floor..... Wow I am smart sometimes.....LOL

If i asked if anyone wanted to act like a gwalla gwalla, i would of asked.I have a 20 L and a 10 in my little room and it fits well.Dont u think if i could of put it in a corner i would of.Some people on this forum are helpful and some just go off with their fingers.4 geckos was given to me i didnt buy them.If anything it's a rescue thing im doing.

People are going to keep giving you the same answer over and over again.

Hi

I have a couple idea's for you, I don't now if they will be helpful or not.

Could you maybe hand make a platform of some kind with legs attached that would raise the tank up a little off of your radio, but still be in that space you have?. I don't now if your radio has a boxed in frame for it or what, it is still hard to picture the size radio in my mind.

Second idea, if the first one isn't feasible. You could think of coming up with a time frame as to when you will and won't play your radio. For example - you know that they sleep during the day and are awake at night, so plan several hours in a row during the day when you won't play your music, so they can have some good uninterupted sleep time, and then when you do play it, just don't play it real loud and maybe tone down the base when you do.

Don't now if this will help you or not.

Take Care, TLB
