    OH! You should look into Uromastyx! There is a verity of species that comes in many different looks and colors. Very neat for a display animal. And they don't need insects.
    (don't look at hatchling photos. Adults look totally different from hatchlings. The hatchlings tend to be dull and look pretty similar to each other...)
    They have great personalities too
    Water dragons are on of my favorites, but they also need more then a 55 can provide after a while, so for now unfortunetly I cant have one, because im limited on space as for uyo's i have seen them before and they are neat, i guess im going to have to read up on them alittle and see what they are about!

    So if you want to avoid that, my vote is for blue-tongue skink or uromastyx. But that's just because I like big animals better than small ones.
    Im with you I prefer bigger animals, im waiting until I have sufficient room then id love to get an iguana, i know they are tempermental but for some reason im drawn to them.

    some of those are incredible looking! thanks for the link! that would be awesome to do, I was also thinking maybe a few red ear sliders or something with 3/4 of one side deep water and 1/4 partial dry basking spot (Or something roughly like that)
