Hello all.. I have wanted to get one of these guys for a while so I have decided to give it a try finally.. Want to do some reading and looking of pics first though. So I was wondering if you guys who have 1 of these guys would post pics of your enclosure and/or animal? And if you have any helpful hints that would be great too.. Thanks for looking! ; )

Well there are a couple care sheets on the web, I will direct you to one, http://www.gekkota.com/html/u_phantasticus.html, this seems like one of the best I've read. As for pictures, the first three were bred by Neil Meister, here is my male, Cronos
female, Athena
tailless female, Shiva
and a new female acquired from my friend James up here in Canada, CB bred by himself, this picture is also taken by him, my camera is broken, Hera
Sorry for the names of the Greek gods, I figure I'll have a good collection of these one day and I'm already out of names, and I also thought the names are quite neat.
No pics of the enclosure, buts lots of cover is needed, pothos is very good, they grow quickly and can quickly fill voids in a terrarium, ficus is also a good choice, a snake plant, cork bark and some moss and many climbing sticks, more like twigs is what i'm using, different sizes, lengths, colors. I end up misting once every night, sometimes in the morning as well but usually once a day. Good luck and take care, buy Captive bred if you can!
