Breeding something non-leo

I have a spare 20 gal tank and would like to try breeding something that isn't a leopard gecko. Any suggestions?

Lots of different species of geckos fit that disciption. would you like another gecko or some thing completely different? How about Pictus geckos or viper tailed? If you want something different how about a type of skink?

In that size tank, why not try some more geckos... Pictus geckos are neat, but I have heard from almost every owner of them I have talked to about them, that the females can lay themselves to death, so you have to (or should) house male/female seperately. Something that would work in there is house geckos (hemidactylus sp.), or you might want to try some Israli sand geckos Stenodactylus sthenodactylus. Look on gekkota.com for some interesting species... If you have some experience, you might try your hand at Uroplatus species....

Well...I would say fattails but thøse are a lot like leos. Pictus geckos lay eggs every months at least and don't need lots of care. Two cuban Anoles would be able to fit in that tank but in my opinion, anoles would be a horrible choice because you can't handel them and they need a complex setup and are harder to breed. Crested geckos are probably the most exciting...I will breed them when I have some money but you would need a new tank..like a 30 gallon arboreal tank but then you will still have a leftover tank. Pictus geckos or fattails are your best choice. Most lizards are too big to breed in that size aquarium. Hope this helps!
