Few questions about the Gargoyle gecko..

[crested101]

Well i have many cresteds but now I'm interested in expanding into a few gargoyles. I just have a few questions that i would like to ask.. Do you think a 15 gallon tank would be sufficient for a juvi or even 1 adult turned up on its side so its vertical? What would you recommend to feed them? CGD? I have read they don't like live feeders that much..Would CGD be good with occasional crickets? I have also read they like fresh fruits...What would you suggest?

Thanks in advance.

gargoyles need more space then cresteds, and they are less aboral.
i suggst reading the Rhac Book because it covers a good amount about their care & diet. they are very similar to cresteds.

yes.  some like live insects, some don't.  our 4 gargoyles will eat crickets maybe once a month.  also found out that adults will eat a frozen/thawed pinky cut in sections about once a month.

has anyone tried anything else like wax worms? My cresties used to love wax worms and moths.

I believe you can get Gargoyle Gecko Diet (GGD) but Crested Gecko Diet (CGD) would be fine as well, from what I've heard most people feed them only CGD or both the CGD & GGD but apparently they are pretty similar.

Actually I believe I read that Anthony feeds his gargoyles crested gecko diet.

yes, I plan on getting some GGD. CGD doesn't contain enough protein for Gargoyles, does it?
