I know a lot of people have commented, but if you're not using supplementation, start using ReptiCalcium w/D3 and w/out D3 by dusting his food each meal. If you are, please take him in for a checkup, he looks very underweight and could have something like parasites. Action sooner rather than later could extend the life of your pet :)
https://www.amazon.com/Vivian-Reptile-Warmer-Temperature-Controller/dp/B01M7SP67V - a heat matt ive used since christmas. its fairly resilient and works fine in my bioactive 20 gal setup so you shouldnt have any problems. id recommend the 7watt.
yeah i mean i feed mine crickets primarily, i sometimes throw in dubia roaches or a wax worm for a treat but my gecko wont eat meal worms either so its really fine. make sure you dont mix vitamins - give pure calcium to vitamin/mineral powder in a 5:2 ratio (3:1 if youre feeding every other day). dont but calcium with d3, it should be pure calcium and a vitamin and mineral powder should be used separately.
here’s what i use:

I have a much smaller container of the same brand that has vitamin D in it that i use rarely. I probably would not suggest using a UVB light- they come out at dawn and dusk so a bright light would quite possibly confine them to their hides, as they would assume it is daytime by the light.
