i built custom cages for my herps and the bottom cage was built without a place for lights becuase it was for my hedgehog. unfortunately he passed a few weeks before the cages were finished so i have an empty cage on the bottom. there is still alot of heat coming from the top cages and i can always use heat mats but they would have to be inside the cage. i also have 2 heat rox but i am not using them unless told otherwise becuase of herps getting burnt(although my mom has kept an eastern king on a larger heat rox w/ a fluorescent and know heat lamp for 6-7 years and a burmese pyth for longer than that) but i still stopped using them. anyway i was wondering what nocturnal gecko species can live in this cage. it is probably in the 90's during the day but i havent been monotoring it since i have nothing in it yet except my containers of feeders. also, if there are no gecko species i was wondering about tf's or fbt's. the cage is 3 ft. long and i dont really remember the other demensions.

Since you talking about a cage with no lighting, I would look not only for a nocturnal species that doesn't need UV radiation, I would also look for a terrestrial species so heat can be provided via heat mats.
The obvious choice would be leopard geckos or african fat tail geckos for the setup you're describing.
Any nocturnal geckos,i had my leo,house,fat-tail and tokay without one in the summer.In the winter I use a heater in my room
