Question
Tara,

could i put a leopard gecko and and an anole in the same terraruim?  not separated, just together.

Thanks,
Hardy

Answer
Hello, Sorry Hardy but no...you can not but these two lizards together firstly the green or even brown anole/knight anoles also included live in rain forests in trees well hidden from view they need 60/70 % humidity and lower temps then the lepard gecko...leopard geckos neec higher temps, Dry habitats(with the exception of the warm/damp hide for shedding) and don't climb trees like anoles do. Also anoles all types need UVB lighting 5.0 or higher. please if you would like an anole get another terrium setup.
