To ensure your leopard gecko stays warm at night, provide a heat source like an under-tank heater or ceramic heat emitter in their enclosure. Use a thermostat to regulate the temperature and make sure it stays between 70-85F (21-29C) at night. Avoid using heat lamps at night as they can disrupt your gecko's sleep cycle.

How can I effectively heat a leopard gecko tank to ensure the optimal temperature for my pet's well-being?

To effectively heat a leopard gecko tank, use an under-tank heating pad or heat lamp on one side of the tank. This creates a temperature gradient, with one side warmer than the other. The warm side should be around 88-90F (31-32C) for daytime and slightly cooler at night. Use a thermostat to regulate the temperature and prevent overheating. Additionally, provide hides and other decor for your gecko to regulate its body temperature as needed.

Should you use a heat pad or light bulbs for a leopard gecko?

For leopard geckos, using a heat pad is generally recommended because it provides consistent, localized warmth that mimics their natural burrowing behavior. Heat pads can be placed under one side of the tank to create a temperature gradient, allowing the gecko to thermoregulate. Light bulbs can be used for additional ambient light and to increase overall temperature, but care should be taken to avoid overheating and ensure a proper day-night cycle. Always monitor the temperatures to maintain a healthy environment for your gecko.

Can a leopard gecko live without a heating pad but with just a light?

Leopard geckos should be given a temperature gradient of 80F with a 90F hot spot during the day, and can drop to 70F with an 80F hot spot at night. So, unless your house is 80F at night, the answer is no. Nor should you ever use a heat pad, cord, or heat tape without a reliable thermostat to connect it to. Proper equipment will keep your animal safe and healthy. Leopard geckos may live for over 30 years with proper care--$120 for proper heating equipment and thermostat is not exactly a huge expense for the life of your animal. If you cannot afford it, don't get a leopard gecko.
