    I am looking into getting a couple of different Geckos. I am completely new to this.

    My question is,
    - can you have a couple(2) house geckos in a 20g tank with a Tokay?

    where can i get information on such a topic?

    no you should never house differant species together. especcially tokays. due to the aggressive nature of the tokay it would probably kill the house gecko. not to mention that ecah gecko is imune to different parasites and diseases that the other isn't.

    What Jhoss said. Different reptile species should never be housed together.

    okay isnt a tokay 2x as big as a house gecko
    it would either eat it or at least kill it

    you are entirely right sirch. heck i've heard of tokays being 3 times the size of a house gecko.
