Hi,

these (Tarentola annularis) are among the hardiest gex to be found. I had one specimemn for over 20 years. Adults reach a length of 8 inches, but most stay smaller and they need years to be fully grown. They do best in a tall desert type setup. Males can be very agressive-which includes agressivity against other species. Females do bury two eggs once a month in summer. You can feed the usual -gut loaded and dusted- feeder insects and this mayx include some melaworms as a treat. Thats OK, but take care that mealworms do not overtake and become the majority of the diet. They are too fat and hard to digest.
A bowl with bird grit or crushed sepia shell is important.
But you see: Its not rocket science to keep them and they will bewith you for some 15-25 years.

Hope that helps

Ingo
