bob-
oh geez....im sorry to hear about your first monkey tail and your leo's. that is so sad. anyway, a blue tongue is a pretty slow moving animal, unless something spooks them, then they scurry pretty fast. but come to think of it, george wasn't real fast moving either, unless he wanted out! other than that, he would casually climb through his cage, but not at a fast pace. george went to home of a fellow member of my local herp society. im really sorry i gave him up, to tell u the truth. even tho he went to a good home, i miss him and regret it. i should know better. i was downsizing, due to the kids getting older and keeping me busier, and found homes for george, a ball python, and a uro. i miss them all!! i'll never make that mistake again. anyway, enjoy Rocko!

I currently have 6 BTS and 3 Monkey-tails and although I think they are both great, if you can find a monkey-tail i would go with it, they have alot more personality then alot of people think. Good luck.

i've heard lots of good things about domerals (typo)monitors. they stay pretty small , 3' and are recomended in reptiles mag. as a good starter lizard/monitor . Although they have somewhat the same req. of a savannah monitor. good luck

I tought dumeril's got pretty big
Bearded dragon, uro are fun and active, they mainly eat fruits and veggies. They do need the uva/uvb and a lot of heat.
Leopard geckos are goofy and also very fun. Water dragons are a little touchy, and do need a lot of care. fat tails, are like leopard geckos but less active. Crested geckos are very beautiful and do need a little more care when babies. They are more active a night
We have all of these and each have their own personalities.

Thanks guys! I'm pretty set on the Monkey tail skink though. I'm not too keen on getting something that requries insects!

My top three suggestions would be Blue Tongue Skink, Freckled Monitor and Savannah Monitor (if you can house a varanid mind you). If not, you can never go wrong with a gecko, I would suggest Fat Tail They're my favourites.
