i would say blue tongued skink. altho you said you wanted hyper, and that's definetely not a blue tongue. they're laid back.

Sudan plated lizards are nice. You could have a colony of grass lizards. Tokay geckos have spunk.

Make a nice forest set up and get some Giant leaf tail geckos

If you really want something that will occupy the space, purchase a frilled dragon.

I wouldnt do a specie like leaf tail geckos for a first lizard/gecko, theyre just too fragile. You should deffinately look into some frilled dragons like David said though, they are really cool.

collard lizards are great for hyper lizards! lots of heat and they do great, and so pretty as well!

I also second Jeff's comment on the Uroplatus. Much too advanced for any begginner, and there are few species that need that large of an enclosure.

sorry I thought zero had reptiles, nothing is hard to keep as long as you do the proper research.

oh..well someone said you shouldn't get uroplatus..you could do a lot of nice things with a 70 gallon..I'd go for a live plant set up with some rhac's or uroplatus...wonderfull gecko's and also a good investment if you wanted to sell hatchlings


Speaking of skinks I have always want a pair of shingle backs they live in small colonies..but I guess australlia is strict on exporting..is their any cb shingles? They were the first lizards I ever wanted to get
