I had one for almost a year now and it is a great gecko. Mine lives in a 55g with lots of other various animals. But i kept him in a 10g for a few months and it was plenty big for it. It doesn't have to be very humid or hot either. I would say 60% and 75F would be fine. Mine eats small crickets and licks water off leaves and the glass. It is not aggressive and doesn't seem to mind being held.

Here's a shot of my gecko's eyes. He's on a small pool ball.

depends on the gecko... best not to chance it forever unless you see it has no qualms with it... you can get a spray bottle to wet the sides and decorations or a garden sprayer.
if you have a spray bottle that has only been used for water i'd test it and spray somewhere he feels comfortable a few times and then sit back and watch... if he laps it up like a madman then he's gonna need it... if he starts showing signs of dehydration, he'll need it
best to know for sure if the little guy will drink from the water dish b4 ruling out a sprayer...
now all of this has been assuming your asking about drinking... he may bathe in it from time to time also
