Today i went and bought 6 baby leps, and I'm housing them all together in a 55 gallon tank. Any problems with housing this many together?

make sure you don't have two males living together... and if they are young then seperate the males from the females so they don't become eggbound.

For now as long as they are small it will be ok. Watch for any bullying though. At the first sign of it remove the problem gecko. As they get older you will need to pay VERY close attention and check often to see what sex they are. If you notice one trying to mate or if it is a male remove it immediatly! Also people have said that housing lots of babies together stunts their growth. Someone else might have another oppinion on that. Also did you get them from the same place?? You might need to quarantine them. Atleast for a month or two. Good luck!

when they are small that is ok but when they get about 4-5 inches long they should have at least 10 gallons per gecko
