I would say anything that appeals to you personally. One word of caution. Make sure you can provide homes for the animals you produce. Hot ones on my personal list are Tangs,Bells and Rains and combinations of those genes.

I wouldn't put any more than three in a thirty gallon personally. A general rule is about ten gallons per gecko. Of course there are exceptions because some tanks are differnet shapes. Just make sure they have enough places to hide so they don't stress each other out.
