The leachianus is the largest living gecko. It is nocturnal, lives in trees and makes loud growling calls. It can live over 20 years.
Keep it at 22 to 27 °C and avoid heat above 28 °C. Mist every evening and let the enclosure dry a bit during the day.
Feed a complete gecko diet, with dusted insects and sometimes a pinky mouse for large adults. It is shy and has a strong bite, so it suits experienced keepers.
