Default is this ok for my leo

I was on another forum and posted the photos of my leo's viv and some bloke had ago at me saying it was too small for 1 leo.
Heres the pics






the dimensions are 2ft,by 1ft by 1ft.

I want the best for my leo and would hate to think that I am mistreating her. Thanks in advance
Steve

i thin as long as you dont over load it with hides and stuff then it should be alright.

He really ripped into me though so was unsure, I did alot of reseach before I purchased it to make sure it was big enough for 1 but he made me doubt myself.

that tank size is fine , they get stressed out if the tank is too large, at least your gecko will be able to find its food
