Hiya,

i'm v new myself, but thought i would have a go.

Lashes - my gecko is quite jumpy, although if u constantly move yr hands so he/she can walk across them it seems to keep them quite busy. if u are worried u could always sit on the floor, until u are used to the moments.

i have fake plants, i know they arn't as amazing as real ones but they do a v nice job when u look u can order quite a few diff fake plants, by the time u have twisted then round the vines i think they look gd. + they are very easy to clean

as far as i am aware the morphs are purely on which groups that have been bred in for partnering, mine is a green pin stripe all morphs are brighter at night when they flare up.

I hope u have lots of luck with yr gecko!

real plants get expensive when they die or your beasties break them

other reasons fakes are good are you can rearrange threm n they wont die, you can take em out n clean them, they dont need uv, water or food and wont potentially poison ur little friends

i use fakes in my aquariums - silk are best and by time some algae has grown on em, they look brilliant (and dont clog the filters )
