Hi I am looking to get a Crested Gecko. What should I know before buying one of them?

What size of tank?
What tempeture?
What should I use for the floor?
Do they eat the same type of food that a Beardie does?
Do they eat as much a Beardies?
How big do they grow up to?
Are they easy to handle?
And last question What Uv light should I put in with it?

Oh ye.

How long should the light be on for a day?
And will it all be cheaper than a Beardie(£200 all toghter)?

Cant I use this green carpet because it is just sitting on the top of the wardrobe?

doesnt really need much light, as they only really come out at night anyway, and yes, should be cheaper than a beardie and its setup, maybe £100-£150 including the cresty?
