Leo Gecko Tubs/Rack?

[monk90222]

Hi
I have a breeding trio of Leo's and at this point I have them in a 20 Gall long fish tank. I am interested in switching over to plastic tubs in some sort of rack unit. My questions are: How big of a tub do I need per gecko? Can I make the rack out of plywood? and can I heat it just using the ambient temp in the room (about 85 day, 78 night..its a dedicated reptile room) if not can i use heat tape and will it be dangerous in a plywood rack? Thank You in advance for your help!!

Heating with just ambient room temp won't work. They need the belly heat to aid with digestion...
