Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Hello all!

New to the forums, this being my first post, and I just had a very broad question to pose. I'm a fairly avid herpetoculturist, and have house many different species. I'm currently working a a Rhacodactylus ciliatus breeding project, and that's my primary focus. Last night, I got a call from a local petstore about a contest I had entered telling me I won a free 45 gallon aquarium. I was completely blown away at the prospect of getting something to add to my collection. My problem came from the standpoint of I don't honestly know what I would like to get. My question is: What all can comfortably live in a 45 gallon aquarium? I was thinking along the lines of a Physignathus cocincinus(Chinese Water Dragon), but I honestly don't know enough about them just yet to commit to one. If anyone could offer any guidance, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Chris

Chinese Water Dragons (Adults) shouldn't be kept in just a 45gallon tank. 3x3x3 feet would be a minimum.

eastern collared lizards are the coolest in my opinion and pretty easy to take care of..........that's my first choice

I agree. Collared lizards are awesome. I don't have any right now but I'm going to be looking for some soon.

Those red-eyed crocodile skinks are really cool too.
