Does anyone know how these are kept in captivity? I saw them in the clasifieds and thought they looked cool. I really liked their small size. What size cage do you think they would need? Any help appreciated.

I assume you are talking about Latastia longicaudata.
These need a long sandy savannah tank with bright basking lights, a more humid resting area and a grassy corner with hidings to feel secure.
They are quite hardy, but breeding seems to be more difficult.

hope that helps
