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.
