They do like to stay hidden.



If you're leaning towards lizards, the small anole species are good candidates. They'll be wild caught so be sure to select healthy individuals and know how to sex them so that you don't end up with multiple males. They are always out and about with the male flashing his dewlap for the girls. Both green and brown anoles are readily available.



Some of the small day gecko species would be another option. Day geckos, however, like to climb to the top of the front glass to deficate resulting in streaks of poo running the length of the tank, so if you decide to go with them, be prepared to do a lot of glass cleaning.



Emerald swifts would be another species to consider. I haven't kept them, but I do have numerous other spiney lizards. They tend to be out and about and are always doing push ups to each other and they're a bit more robust than anoles or day geckos.
