    Looking for a new lizard!

    Hello all,

    I have a 25L x 12W x 16H tank and I was looking for a new reptile. I could buy a new tank eventually, but that is the size tank I have available (my true fire skink grew out of it). Any suggestions? The only lizard I have is an African True Fire skink who is simple and friendly. Thanks!

    Not sure that is high enough, but maybe look into mourning geckos?

    I am considering them for my next viv (36x18x36). Their care seems to be straightforward, and I want something that won't crush more delicate plants.

    They are absolutely beautiful! Do you think the space would work for any gecko? There are some adorable leopard geckos at the pet store near me.

    Hi in an effort to keep the forum clutter free, all identical threads have been deleted. There is no need for multiple identical threads, just be patient (today is Sunday and there are usually less people online).

    Thank you.

    Lots of things can start in there, not much could stay in there. Leopard gecko would work.

    Thanks! Is housing two leopard geckos (they are housed together at the pet store) difficult? Do they fight? Or are they better off alone?

    Males should not be housed together, females can, male and female housing should not be done unless they are proper weight for breeding, otherwise your female may become egg bound.
