Hi. I have kept snakes for about four years now but I am new to lizards. Would it be ok if you housed a green iguana and a water or basilisks together.

In general, it's not a good idea to mix species unless you can afford a very large habitat for them. Different body language, if nothing else, is likely to lead to problems.

I agree. Its not a very good idea. Not to mention the size differnce, a full gorwn green iguana is A LOT bigger than a water dragon. If your Ig decided that the CWD was no longer his friend...it would be all over
