Many other leopard gecko care resources recommend that leopard geckos should be permanently housed in a 10 or 20 gallon enclosure to prevent them from getting “overwhelmed” in a larger space, or stating that more room is simply “not necessary.” However, reptiles will utilize every inch of space that we make available
How big should a tank be for a leopard gecko?
20-gallon long
Is a 25 gallon tank too big for a leopard gecko?
25 gallons is actually a little too big. 20 gal is the minimum AND the maximum. Leopard geckos get stressed in too big of enclosures. Honestly, a 10 gal for a baby is good but once they get to be about 5 months, switching to a 20 gal long tank is best.
