It should be. AT LEAST 30C°. Sounds crazy to you? Some place get much hotter you know...

If it gets that warm in your house, you've got a problem. Anything over about 82 (27 C) or so is considered very dangerous if not deadly for crested geckos.

That's why I'm asking! I'd there a way I can make the viv cooler permanently? I knew some people who had crested here but lost contact...

I don't know of a way of keeping the viv itself cooler. You'd probably have to decrease the temperature of the room it's in.

Probably would be a good idea to pick another reptile then.

It's not like i want a random lizard... I like leopard & crested, already have leopard so only miss one..

Keep it in your basement, if you have one. 60F is the lowest they can tolerate, but 80F is getting dangerously high

There are literally hundreds - if not thousands - of gecko species out there. Limiting yourself to two makes no sense.
