tokay for me was 18.99
fake plants from the dollar store about 2 dollars
20 gallon or bigger tank about 40 - 50 dollars
a water fall (because they won’t drink still water) is probably about 10 dollars or more

Crickets at my store are like 9 cents a piece
waxworms , super worms etc are like 6.99 for 100
substrate...people say use eco - earth which is about i think 7 dollars

so you figure:
40.00 ( 20 gal tank)
18.99
10.00
.81 ( 9 crickets / 9 cents each)
2.00 (plants)
7.00 (substrate)
----------
TOTAL

I went a little overboard on my tank (but my geckos are worth it).

I ended up spending $300 total for the whole set up including two decent sized tokays.

Yah, I went over board myself
Tokays: $9 a piece at trade show (x 2)
Tank: 20 Gallon... $10
Screen cover, Screen Clips, 2 domes, 2 lights, bark, plants, hides (logs, hut, drift), bedding.....~$175

Not bad for something that I didn’t think was going to cost anything! ha! ;)

They were $13 each plus shipping. They’re ~8". I haven’t taken out the tape measure yet, but that would be my guess.
