I remember those days! I once lived in a tiny studio apartment and had a boa cage at the foot of my bed, and a snake rack next to my refrigerator. You definitely have made it work!

Leopard geckos can do fine in a tub - depending on the size, you could even have a couple or a small colony of 2.1. I did that for a few years with no problems and had a lot of fun with them.
