Could this be Viv?

Well heres the thing, males should not be housed together. If you want 4 of them, you need either all females, or one male.

Babies cannot be sexed until a few months old. Mine is probably about 3-4 months and we still cannot sex them.

Now I don't know where you are located, but I'm in the US, so we have Petco/Petsmart. I personally purchased my baby there, due to convenience and not wanting to ship a gecko. They sell adults usually, but sometimes have babies. One of the ones around me had adults and they will let you check them out and sex them. Males have larger hemipenile bugles at the base of the tail.

For live plants, yes you can, but they become nasty when the geckos poo on them all day. A lot of people will get live plants then replace them every month. Plants like ficus, pothos and schefflera are the most recommend. Plants also help with the humidity.

You can go for all babies just realize you need to watch them, and if any fighting remove that one that starts it, because it could be two males. There is no way to tell what the gecko is either until it is older, unlike leopard geckos and other geckos which the sex is determined on the temperature it was incubated.
 
but wouldnt that one male cause stress to the other females? and also wont they breed?

Im in the US also in Miami, Florida most of them here actually sell more babies than adults from what Ive seen. But I'm actually planning on buying them from a reptile show later on this year around august i believe.

the poop I would have to clean regardless of it being fake or not right?

also what substrate could I use if I use lie plants? potting soil with no white balls or anything in it right?
 
You need something with no fertilizers in it. I personally just use repti-bark, but some people will use eco-earth and other things. I'd buy something like that. They might breed, then you can just incubate and hatch your own :) I'm doing that with my leopard geckos now, waiting for an egg to hatch any down now actually!

You have to clean up after them no matter what, but fake plants are easier to wipe off than real ones. Real ones are better as they can help keep the humidity up. Maybe see if you can find someone at the reptile show that is selling 5-6 month old ones that are sexed. They aren't too big, but then you can just get all female.
 
you can just coat the wood

well now im planning on making it just plexiglass no cabinet. because it would be nice to see the cresties from any angle not just the front.



the water feature would be a water fall. I would make a foam background for it have it built into the foam and have the water land in a contained, shallow, and small body of water

and also the plexi will be sealed with silicone that is used in aquarium tanks

what would the difference be if I just line it with plexi? But now that I think about it visually a plexi tank would look alot better than the cabinet lol

Silicone won't work with plexi-glass. """acrylic cement"" is necessary if you want to build a plexi-glass tank.
