Re: Housing multiple lizards together?

You could go with the obvious choices of Beardies, Leopard Geckos, Green/Brown/Bahama Anoles, or the other types of Geckos such as Gargoyles and Cresteds....... they stay small, exception to the Beardies, and are known to "colonize" well.
If you want color and similar husbandry requirements, Chinese Water Dragons can live with Basilisks and Sail Fin lizards farily nicely. They live in practically the same enviroment and need the same food, heat, similar humidity, as eachother.
However if you do keep these lizards together, make sure you don't get too many that would take up too much tank space, and make sure you have many hides and that you keep them well fed to avoid confrontation.
Whatever lizards you choose, even if they're not the ones I suggested, if you house them all together please do not buy a majority of males to avoid fighting! Example - 2 females and 1 male. 3 females and 1 male. 1 male and 1 female etc.
I wouldn't exceed getting 4 of the lizards I mentioned because they do get bigger than 1 foot lol. So you may want a 150 gal instead of 125.
