You know it might make it easier to clean if you didn't have the heaviest things you could possibly think of for decoration/hides for your gecko. I'm surprised they haven't cracked through the bottom of the tank!

Now my soap box... if you would have researched and evaluated your abilities before getting this lizard you wouldn't have picked it. It's not for the squeemish or the jumpy. If you own a WC tokay you will get bit. You might have done better to plan ahead of time. If you're going to use newspaper you should have planned to figure out how to change it more frequently AND not get bit. If you're not going to change it enough go with a biologically active type bedding instead, plant your tank, etc. But the poopy paper and the bricks... that's probably some of the worst planning I've ever seen.

Do not make the mistake that pooping = healthy. As a veterinary student I've seen many MANY MANY MANY severely sick animals still pooping. Exotics are even worse as they will pretend to be healthy until they have 3.9 feet in the grave.

Do some research. What did you expect to get as a response with a habitat like that?
