There are a few on the list that id have to disagree with as "display animals". When i think display animal i think something that when i walk or people walk into a room and look at a tank thats what they see first when they look at the tank. I had a pair of cresties and theyre nocturnal so they always hid during the day. I could still find them if i looked but they werent out in the open. Also dart frogs. My friend had an epic dart frog setup and it was awesome to look at, but the darts he had were camoflaged really well. Usually the only way i could spot all of them was during feeding time. I voted for GTP, ATB, big snake, beardie, and small monitor. Every GTP is always out basking. Im pretty sure the same goes for ATB, plus i just like them haha. Every Beardie ive seen is always hunting or basking during the day. And im not sure of small monitor species but ive seen a few wild setups. One was for a Timor Monitor I think. And for big snake id prolly say boa or carpet.

I chose cresties because they're one of the easiest to keep, cheap, and they won't destroy a nicely decorated enclosure. Finding them is half the fun. My sister has fish and 1 invisible shrimp lol, and everyone loves looking for it!
Dart frogs can have awesome realistic enclosures - that won't get destroyed.. They sharp coloration on them makes them gorgeous, and you can house multiple!
A well-taken care of monitor will most likely have a huge home . That will be impressive no matter what monitor is in there .
