So many animals? No way.
A 90 g is a decent size for a pair, even though I prefer to keep them in bigger tanks.
Tokays are hardy and survive decades even in shoebox sized enclosures. But they are agile runners and animals in large tanks show a completely different baheaviour than thier collegues in tiny 20-50g.
After all, tokays in big tanks are mamong the least aggressive gecko species at all-the same animals which can be that fiesty in small tanks!
Tokays also do show pair bonding. In a considerable percentage of cases, a pair accepts a second female which then may also lay fertile eggs. But in many cases, the female fights all other females or the male does not mate with additional females.
If you add 4-5 females in a 90g, the tank would be so overcrowded, that animals quite liklely won´t fight, but its far from apt keeping.
