Not really. They don't need a bunch of heat lamps/under tank heaters. They're pretty happy at room temperature so they're great with the electric bill. The only additional lighting that would be required is if you want to keep live plants with them which I do with my adults.
but they cost alot themselves. they cost like 70 dollars here and i can get a leopard gecko totally setup for the same or less.
i find it more depends on the gecko one of my females is competently insane and really don't not like to be seen or handled but my male is in general really really chill along with my other two females who may not be as chill but still easily handleable, i.e. you can tell when thay are going to jump.
really man, that is cheap for a complete set up for a leo, and for just a run of the mill crestie shouldn't be more than $50-60 even at chain stores.
