    Okay, so a few days ago, I bought a 24"X"24"X18" Exo Terra terrarium. So, any suggestions on what I should put in it? Im posting this in a few forums, and i'm not sure if I should post it in the general area, or the habbitat area, or what. So any ideas would be great!

    It sounds perfect for a crested gecko.

    If you get a pet rock, be sure to paint a face on it, with a mouth. I know someone (Worleygurl :( ) who forgot to do that and her rock died. It was a terrible tragedy and so easily preventable too.
    Do research different reptiles and decide what is best for you...you are the one who is going to have to look at it for the next 15 years, feed it, water it, handle it....you get the idea :(

    I got the idea; but i'm looking for suggestions. As for a crested; I have one, i'd like somthing a bit diffrent. I'm willing to do research, of course, but I'd like some suggestions, i'm not sure what would be nice in a cage like that.

    Is it the screen or glass kind? It's a decent height so something that climbs would be good, yet it is a bit short on ground space so it would have to be a semi-small thing. There are a bizillion different geckos that would fit the bill really. Some are much harder to keep than others, what level of care are you looking at....? Look through the general gecko forum, at least to get an idea of what is out there.

    I would say go with some uroplatus geckos. The satanic leaftails are cool and run about $150 a pair. Then again you could just go overboard and get a GIANT leaftail!!!

    It really depends on how much you are willing to spend on the animal itself, feeding, and lighting. Also if you want a reptile you can handle regularly, or just a display animal (leaftails).

    As for level of care, I don't want anything thats needs my attention around the clock; but i have a good two hours a day opened for 'em. As for that leaftail; I do like it. I like geckos and lizards in general; and i want somthing handlable though i'm not picky. I do like that leaftail~ :(
