90% of the time the two species do not require the same care. In most cases, people will try to house a leopard gecko with a crested gecko. Leopard geckos live in heat reaching 105F each day with up to 14 hours of light and 0% humidity, very dry. The crested gecko live in temps never exceeding 80F with 10-12hours of sunlight and up to 90% humidity. One of the species is guaranteed death depending on what the setup of the tank is (desert or tropical)

Can you put a gecko in a 10 gallon fish tank?
Depending on the species of the gecko will determine if the gecko would require a larger tank or not. A small gecko species would do fine in a 10 gallon tank but larger species such as Tokay geckos or Leachianus gecko would require a larger terrarium. Also, depending on the specie of gecko will determine if the tank should be of horizontal orient or vertical. A ground welling specie will enjoy a horizontal layout, while an arboreal specie would prefer the vertical.
