Your gecko will be able to absorb the vitamins on his own. I also have never used a UVB light, and have never had a problem.

Heat, put the temperature strip in the hot end near the bottom and see what the temp. is. It should be 80 to 82 degrees. If it is to hot, just remove the heat lamp from the tank. It creates more heat.

You don't need a water bowl for the gecko to soak in, just a water bowl to drink out of.

You have to remember that leopard geckos come form a desertly like atmosphere, like afganistan.

But yes on the humide hide, hit helps them to shed.
