Incheon reptile shop Crerism: Lily Sable crested gecko, 150,000 won

While looking for a reptile shop in Incheon, I visited Crerism in Cheongna. I already keep one crested gecko, but for my first adoption I didn't even know about morphs — so this time I wanted to compare a variety of individuals in person and study up before choosing.

Crerism Incheon Cheongna Branch has a spacious shop with plenty of individuals to compare directly, and beyond adoptions, everything needed for husbandry was available in one place. Today I'm writing up my crested gecko adoption process along with the supplies I picked up.

Why compare crested geckos in person at this Incheon reptile shop?

To adopt a crested gecko, I visited Crerism Incheon Cheongna Branch on a Sunday evening with my child and husband.

Among Incheon reptile shops, this one stood out for its size and large selection of individuals — I could compare geckos with many different morphs, colors and traits all in one place. Adoption fees varied by individual too, so I could weigh them against my budget.

I didn't go in set on a specific morph, but while browsing, a baby with a lemon-tinged ivory and beige color caught my eye.

This one's morph was Lily Sable, and staff told me the color could develop further as she grows. I did hesitate over whether it was okay to take home such a young baby, but her feeding response was good — I watched her eat Repashy Superfoods well right there in the shop — and after consulting with staff about her condition and care, I decided to adopt her. Since she was so young, I checked her health and feeding response especially carefully.

I kept comparing other individuals, but I couldn't find one prettier than her. That's how she became the second gecko in our home — her name is May.

Since she's still young, her sex is undetermined, and the adoption fee was ₩150,000.

The individual card came filled out with her morph, hatch date, and even her parents' information. Since I hadn't known any of that with my first adoption, this time I made sure to check the info myself and compare plenty of individuals.

Being able to compare each individual's traits and get detailed answers to my questions before deciding was really satisfying.

Acrylic enclosure and crested gecko supplies bought at Crerism

Along with the adoption, I also picked up the crested gecko supplies I needed.

From acrylic enclosures to backgrounds, hides, decor, and even food like Repashy Superfoods — there was a wide range of husbandry supplies, and I could choose while seeing everything in person.

Staff also recommended an enclosure setup and decor for the crested gecko, so I redecorated May's home and even redid my other gecko's enclosure. I wanted both of them living like they were at a hotel, so I set up all-new acrylic enclosures, backgrounds and decor for both.

I also liked not having to search for crested gecko supplies online piece by piece — I could compare the actual products and pick what I needed on the spot. I left having sorted out not just the adoption but the enclosure and supplies all at once.

Since everything needed for husbandry is available in one place, this would be easy for beginners or newcomers to crested gecko keeping to prepare from scratch.

Adoption steps and the wildlife transfer report at Crerism

If you're keeping a crested gecko for the first time, it can be overwhelming just figuring out which individual to choose. At Crerism, I was able to compare various individuals and adoption fees, check feeding condition and hatch information, and get thorough consultation before choosing. After deciding on the adoption, I also filled out the designated wildlife transfer report and was guided through the necessary procedures to wrap things up.

If you're looking for a reliable reptile shop in Incheon, Crerism is worth comparing — it lets you handle adoption, the enclosure and supplies all in one place. I hope this helps anyone who, like me, wants to compare carefully and adopt with confidence.
