crested geckos are cool and all but you should consider a Leopard gecko also, they are very hardy and easy to take care of, and adult can live in a ten gallon tank, i house mine in a 20L so i can have different areas for him, but i have a BP and a Leopard gecko, i have had the leopard longer and he was my first reptile and will always be my favorite, they dont mind being handled and can get quite active in the evenings, "they do eat bugs though"
