Anyone have opinions?

Um... well, ive never kept a red sided skink... But i did have a breeding pair of Leopard Gekos. I kept them in about a 20 gal tank and they did fine!

Those two should be fine in that tank..
 
The last time I had a question about lizard compatibility no one answered :p That was quick. The skink gets 8 inches (so does tail :lol: ), requires a 15 gallon minimum, requires a diet of insect and plant matter. It needs a basking spot of 90 degrees, needs 60-75 degrees at night, and should be fed 3-4 times a week. -_- That should help out eople that know about geckos. I'm sure I could just keep the temp at a steady 85 instead of 90 though. I think I'll get one, but I'll have to catch my crocodile gecko, he's fast. He can go with my golden gecko :nod: The croc (no resemblance) looks like the skink might eat him, but it would also croud the tank, and bob is alone :unsure:
 
Lol! I used to breed snakes and lizards, just for fun, but i LOVE reptiles!!!

Gekos are pretty adaptable so he should have no problem with that at all! :)

You'll have to post pictures when you get them sorted out! :D

I've found golden geckos to be really timid. Even though the crocodile gecko is so small the golden still might be afraid.

I'm not a big fan of mixing different reptiles together :no: but if it works for you then go for it!
 
The golden gecko "Bob" was ok with the leopard for a while, but I will still keep an eye on every one. Bob isn't exactly my favorite, he's bitten me before and gets a 3 foot tall screened tank all to himself :eek: It looks very empty and he better accept "Steve" the crocodile gecko :nod: If these two don't work out, I can put steve in a 10 gallon with my brothers anole and House gecko :) If I can catch the little demon :rolleyes: I'm still in awe that I'm getting replies :lol:
 
Ok, I got the skink, and he has the 20l to himself. I put the leopard in with my brother's Anole in a 10 gallon, and I think he liked the change. The Crocodile gecko is doing great with the golden in their 3' tall 18"lx18"w screened tank. :D I'll get pics later :D
 
I had a Moorish Gecko and two Eyed Skinks together for years with no problems. *shrugs* but I don't know if the species of skink & gecko that you're asking about would be as compatable.
 
I think I'll leave him with this tank, alone :D
