If that is a hide on the floor- loose it. the gecko will not really use it and
crickets will just hide there so your gecko will not be able to find it.

Why is it on its side? It will be alot harder to feed your gecko without
him jumping out and all the food going everywhere. I suggest you put
it back to its normal way if you get me!

other than that its good! lol

this is all my opinion and constructive criticism. others might say im wrong Wink

There isn't a hide on the floor it is a water bowl.

It is on it's side so it is taller.

You can see the door in the bottom pic, on the left.

Have to agree with Paul, you dont need it on its side. This will eventually complicate feeding. The other thing is you wont need a water bowl, as they never go to them, they take their water off of leaves after their vivarium being sprayed.

Would agree with everything else said apart from that little bit, I often catch my 2 drinking from the waterbowl in the tank as well as licking from the leaves and side of the tank. Just make sure it isn't too deep for obvious reasons and change it every couple of days (or when it gets something in it - normally mine end up crapping in it Laughing )

Lol I turned it back to normal and I'll keep the water bowl in just in case and to help humidity a bit.
