Too many springtails

I have a bioactive crested gecko tank with isopods and springtails, however i had a few remaining springtsils in a container in hopes they would breed and... it worked too well.. i cant see to many springtails in the tank and at the time I barely got any in there but now I have a entire lot full of springtails and im not sure if I should add them to the tank or set them free. Honestly im scared to open the container.

Help with fruit flies

Ive got my bioactive crested gecko enclosure set up for a few months, and its been doing great however i was cleaning some of my crested geckos poop off the wall and I had noticed a handful of fruitflies or some small flys, im not sure how to go about this and if they can be apart of the bioactivity, I got a lot of them out and killed some so now theres none flying in there but if anyone has any ideas or ways to get rid of them I would greatly appreciate the advice 🙏

Thoughts/ideas?

Hello everybody! I have completed my leos 4 x 2 x 2 finally and I have put her in it and she loves every inch, however i would love to see what the professionals on reddit think lol. She has 3 hides one closer to the tank being the coolest, one rock with sphagnum moss in it under some leaves and a homemade warm hide with tiles from home depot, it isnt exactly bioactive but i have a solid amount of real plants in there and good soil for bioactivity. One thing that concerns me is it does tend to get very humid and i was thinking of adding a fan to keep it mellow, but when I wake in the morning I find it to be around 70 and during the middle of the day it tends to be around 45, the heating is good and stays around 86 in her main basking spot. One water dish hidden under the palm tree but she loves to just sit in it sometimes so I couldn't take it out. She is super friendly and loves to climb around the entire tank at night even all over the walls. If anybody has any ideas id love to hear them and tysm for reading this!!

Would this work?

Found this top soil wondering if it will work for a 4 ft by 2 ft by 2 ft for a mixture for my leopard gecko

Is 4ft by 2 ft by 2 ft too big?

Hello everybody ive come a little while on my journey of owning reptiles, I have a crested gecko in a bioactive teranium and a 4 month old leopard gecko in a temporary 20 gallon tank. I was planning to upgrade my leopard geckos tank to somthing much more explorable and beneficial for the lil guy. However I bought a 150 gallon tank with random accessories, and once I got it in the house it really sunk in how huge it really was, and I still wouldn't mind putting him in the tank after its set up but does anybody think thats too big?? Im not going to pass up an opportunity to invest in a skink though so im curious if i should get my leopard gecko a 40 gallon or if i should just go with it and put him in the massive tank.

Please let me know recromendations or any feedback thank you for reading.

Anywho the dudes freaking gorgeous and i havnt came up with a name that fits, if you guys got any ideas I would LOVE to hear them.
