hereres some I got from my reptile books.
scientific name:anolis garmani
range:introduced and established in miami,FL/native to jamaica
adult size:near a foot in length
terrarium size:If you live in florida you should kepp them in outdoor screen cages but if thats not an option I have heard they should have no less than a verticly oriented 65 gallon.
terrarium type:high hunidity and tropical.plenty of tree or log sections for perching on and vining plants for cover.and a substratre that will help keep the humidity up.Im not sure if you need a water bowl or not but it couldnt hurt.
diet:crickets,grasshoppers,roaches,fruits,and pinkie mice.

if you need anything else just ask.also check out centralpets.com
