Question
would a baby Chinese water dragon and a baby green basilisk get along in a tank together? I have a 50 gallon tank for my baby water dragon and I'd like to know if i need to get another for the basilisk.

Answer
Raechyl,                                                     Absolutely not. Your tank is not going to be big enough for your full grown dragon. Basilisks are very aggressive. Your dragon is not. All male reptiles are very territorial and do not like to share their space and they will attack each other.... sorry, Tina
