Search this forum, other forums on the web, the web, etc. then ask specific questions you still aren't sure about. There's just too much to cover for one reply. Knowing which species they are would be a great start!

Dead basic reply.......

Keep 'em apart, feed them every 2-4 days, mist them twice a week, give them a cage taller than long, keep 'em at room temp.
You could really do with knowing the species.
Try for some pix.
