kurma Jul 04, 2003 08:49 PM

Can anyone tell me anythiong about dune gecko uincludiong there scientific name? I just bought three female ones gravid and waiting for a male. They are currently in a 50 gallon critter cage tank with micro habitat and 85 watt baking lamp. Nothing was really open today so tomorrow I'm goign to find them some hide area and a fluorescent fixture. I have sand as substrate and a bowl of water. Please tell me what the ambiet temp needs to be and what the basking spot should be. I know its not good I bought on impulse but i want to give them a good home.

I believe the scien is Stenodactylus petrii or Stenodactylus sthenodactylus. www.gekkota.com has a care sheet for them.Best of luck.
