even if you do manage to find the flavor that the geckos like the most, is it a good idea to feed that nectar to them alone. as i and i bet most of you have found with numerous of the species in this hobby, captives can get bored if fed the same things consistently. I think the reason that you have found such a good feeding response is because the geckos are intrigued by the newer flavors. i think variety will stimulate them the most. do any of you agree?

unless you are useing another feeding program involving the needed proteins & mineral supplments, no.
the nectar is designed to be mixed with the base. the nectar could be helpful to give a little zing of flavor to those not useing the CGD feeding system.

that was a rhetorical question and i should have said "is it a good idea to feed them that flavor alone" as in the most feed response inducing flavor without using variety.
