Do I have all my ducks in a row?

[bamagecko76]

Ok, so I plan to get a crestie tomarrow if they're in stock and I see one I like, if not then I'll get a leo that I've had my eye on for a diffrent tank. I have been reasarching a crestie for about two months and I just want to make shure I am all systems go so to speak.

Here is my plan/supply list:

Repashy superfoods CGD.
10 gallon tank on its side with screen top/clamps.
3 plastic plants and one plastic tree with a drift wood base.
Paper towel substrate.
I will buy a spray bottle tomarrow.
Cricket supplys.
I can move my betta fish out of a critter keeper and move the gecko in if he/she is small and can't find food in the 10.
I have calcium with d3 that I plan to dust the crickets with.
The tank will be room temp untill winter when I will get him/her/them a bulb.
My room temp currently is 68-72.
How often should I feed him crickets?
How much and how often should I replace/feed the CGD?

Thanks for the input please correct as necisary all input is much appreciated!

P.S: I had a leo from a friend last year but he was malnourised and died (They went with only advice from the petstore and an outdated book.) so I'm not a total herp noob.

I give CGD every other night usually, sometimes I skip a night and do it once every 3 nights. I usually mix up 1/2 teaspoon powder and 1 teaspoon water per gecko. Basically I let them eat as much CGD as they feel like.

I offer dubia cockroach nymphs once a week to once every two weeks, and usually just to my females.

I dust my roaches using calcium WITHOUT D3. Once every month or two I'll dust with calcium with D3 or herpvite.

You're missing your shallow food dish and water dish from your supply list. I much prefer ceramic dishes, but with hatchlings I will use milk carton tops.

Your setup sounds good, pics would be even better

I hope that helps.

Nothing related to your setup but where are you getting it from?

I would avoid petstores if u can

Thanks for the quick reply! The shallow food and water dish I forgot to list in my OP, I do have it.

@ f4n70m: I'll be getting it at animal trax wich is a very reputable store who gets there animals at a local breeder
