New Caledonia Giant Gecko (Rhacodactylus leachianus) Bioactive Vivarium Kit

A complete bioactive terrarium kit for Rhacodactylus leachianus, or most commonly know as the New Caledonia Giant gecko, or Leachie gecko!

The New Caledonia Giant Gecko can be found (you guessed it!) in New Caledonia, Oceania. This island can be found far east, off the coast of Australia. Aptly named, this is the world’s largest living species of gecko! How so, you might ask? It has been theorized and considered that the Leachianus gecko is an example of island gigantism, which is when animals from the mainland are isolated on an island and evolve over many years to have larger bodies because of plentiful resources.  Preferring to stick to the high canopies throughout the island, this vociferous reptile loves to make homes out of tree hollows and ventures out at night, blending in to their surroundings with their impressive camouflage.

With The Dude's Terra Fauna, you are able to recreate a habitat that makes your Leachie feel more secure and confident. Microflora is included (BioShot), we recommend supplementing with Tropical springtails and Isopods for microfauna. This kit allows you to replicate your gecko’s ideal habitat.  With biodegradables, cork pieces, and self-cleaning substrate, your Leachianus gecko will enjoy this naturalistic habitat. This kit includes everything that you need to get started going bioactive!
