Default leopard gecko setup im new to this!

everyones helped me out on here by answering my questions so this is my setup just tell me if its bad...

for my two adult leopard geckos



substrate- desert sand (i should change that really) any thing i can mix with the sand or any thing i can change to make it better for them?

3 hides - exo terra medium cave on the hot side?
- komodo habitat bark natural decor on the cold side?
- any hides i use can for two adults that would be for a moist hide in shops?

going to have a 50w moonlight bulb on a night just to see them in a better way and for them to know its night for a cycle
and a uvb long bulb dont know what to get though?

exo terra liquid crystal thermeter for cold side and exo terra digital thermometer with probe for hot side?
euro rep habistat heat matt
exo terra reptile calcium and d3 powder is that any good?

loads of rocks and stuff in the middle to kind of spit the hot and cold side

reptile hammocks do you need the ladders to?

thanks

floor tiles or lino may be better if you want sand use play sand from argos

i use a exo terra snake cave (medium) Exo Terra : Snake Cave / Secure Hiding Cave

and a uvb long bulb dont know what to get though? you dont need a uv tube they are nocturnal

exo terra liquid crystal thermeter for cold side and exo terra digital thermometer with probe for hot side?
euro rep habistat heat matt the mat should cover about a third of the floor under the substrate and you need a mat stat
exo terra reptile calcium and d3 powder is that any good? most use pure calcium 5 days a week with a little pot of it in the viv as well and Nutobal which is calcium and d3 two days

loads of rocks and stuff in the middle to kind of spit the hot and cold side you dont neeed to divide the cold from the hot with rocks just place them around the viv for decor

reptile hammocks do you need the ladders to? they dont climb

thanks
my reply in red hope this helps
