    it'd look cool but probably not too great for geckos, unless you kept replacing it like every week.

    i use that foam sheeting for putting on the sides of my tank for privacy, but never thought about that for substrate. Id probably just stick with the kitchen shelf liners as they have something in them to prevent bacteria and germs.
