Can an adult gecko eat another adult gecko?

The question posted is very broad, but the correct answer would be yes. In one sense almost all species of gecko are territorial and will fight. Most species will bight, nip, bark, chip, etc.. to ward off any other species or one of the same specie. If this does not work, generally a gecko will flee. If two of the same species are being housed together that are male, for example: the Leopard Gecko, E. macularius will not eat one of the same species but in most cases will fight it out till death, or one will leave heavily wounded. In the case of retreat, missing tails, fingers, toes and wounds will be present. females same length and same weight can be housed together, in most gecko species cases. If an animal is able to fit the other gecko into it's mouth, it can be swallowed.

Will a gecko allow a new gecko in its vivarium?

Generally, and I'm sure you've heard this, geckos are solitary animals. If there was a little more detail in the question i could be of greater assistance but, Leopard gecko's can co-exist, with some do's and don'ts 1) Never ever house 2 males together, even experienced breeders do not do this. 2) A Full grown gecko (of any species longer than 4 Inches) requires 10 Gallons per gecko 3) A male and Female gecko of the same species can co-exist, but only for a certain time period, males will breed, and too much can ware out your female.1-2 Months together and a minimal 1month break would be appropriate. 4) With more than one gecko, provide extra hiding spots, an exposed gecko around the clock can be a stressed one. 5) Never house juvi's with adults, although they may climb on the bigger one's and it may look cute, once one gets hungry a juvi could be lost.
