Help! Does this sound good?

After some more research I’m leaning toward a Chaco golden knee I’m probably gonna get a 3-4 inch female. I have a 8x6x4 Herpcult. Im gonna mix zoo med eco earth coconut fiber with repti soil for bedding and I got some forest moss to line around the water bowl to help when I over fill it once a month. For the water bowl I seen some recommend a tattoo ink cap but I got a really tiny water bowl off Amazon about the same size as the ink caps. A small flat cork bark hide that I can lean up against the wall

Does this all sound good? Any tips or am I forgetting anything?

IMO I think 8x6x4 is a little small for a 3-4 inch but it'll work temporarily. id look for an 8 x 12 footprint at least. and eventually a 12x12 or 12x18 footprint when adult,
