Green and Brown Anoles

Amphibians

Treefrogs	Preferably a tall tank with hides on the sides like tree bark. You can also use a cut piece of plastic green roofing or unclear tubes like a Pvc pipe. Particularly color changing amphibians and reptiles like a variety of colors to move around and change backgrounds with. Set up should be tropical in most cases, using an aquarium gravel bottom or the semi-aquatic false bottom with plenty of leaf litter/sphagnum moss. Many tree frogs are social and you can house 5-6 Hyla's in a 10gal to 10 in a 20gal tank. Depending on the size of the social frogs. Cuban tree frogs would require more room, so less tree frogs. No more than 2 in a 10gal and no more than 4/5 in a 20gal. More females than males is always best.
Fire Belly Toads Bombina orientalis	A 10gal to longer/wider tanks. No more than 1 male out of 3-4 toads in a 10gal or 2 males out of 5-7 in a 20gal with plenty of hides. Best set up is semi-aquatic with a water jet/pump or air pump. Plants are optional but they do like to lay on them in the water or shade in land foliage. Fluorescents prefered, no special heating required. Preferably the land portion is gravel with a layer of sphagnum moss over it that can remain wet but not easily fall into the water side as it tends to clog a pump but aquarium gravel works fine too. Make sure gravel has plenty of aquarium carbon mixed into it to help materials and waste breakdown. Bombina's have a very slim toxicity, not enough to cause harm but it can be a danger to themselves if it is allowed to build up through the water, and irritate human skin. Change the water out regularly, in a 10gal maybe once every two weeks. Larger tanks can wait at least a month depending upon how many toads are in it. Larger numbers will mean more often water changes. Remove all and rinse out the gravel at most, once a year. I've found allowing the water to dissipate from the land (about a week without adding water) and then filling the tank fresh with room temp water raises my male bombina's interests in breeding with singing and mounting. Daily feeding and 75-80 degrees in the tank may make the females more susceptible to lay eggs. These small toads live up to 10 years. If introducing new with old, make a whole new tank with the new in it and intro the old into it. If it doesn't work out, don't keep them together. They eat anything that moves, including small fish, like guppies, and ghost shrimp, though a regular diet of crickets is fine.
American Toad	Included with the American Toad are most other burrowing, 'dry' toads or Bufo. The size of the tank depends on the size of the frog. A 10gal is, in my opinion, not sufficient for 2, much less one Bufo who averages 4 inches. A 15gal for 2, 20gal for 2-4 Bufo. Semi-tropical - room temperatures with 70-80 humidity but the soil should be mostly dry with just a slight damp feel to it. Use a glass lid as they can escape and easily push up a screen cover. The soil substrate should be at least 4 inches deep for burrowing. Avoid perlite and vermiculite. I recommend hides like coconut shell or curved bark that can be partially buried. Plenty of leaf litter/sphagnum moss with more ground cover than plants. Shading/tall plants would be better to give them ample room to roam the flooring. The water bowl should be larger than usual like a pool for soaking and possible breeding. No deeper than the frog can sit without having to climb 'up' into it. Change regularly. They tend to not move around much until its time to eat and virtually eat anything that moves with only a little pickiness. Crickets are fine with types of worms as a treat.
Turtles	The Musk Turtle is one of very few available in pet trade that doesn't get bigger at 6-7 inches. Red eared sliders among others commonly sold under the deception they won't get much bigger range up to being around one foot in size. The ideal habitat for them is a secure back yard with a pond or baby pool having regular water changes. The minimum is a 20gal tank for a single turtle, semi-aquatic with more water than land as areas for basking and feeding. Most turtles diet on crickets, worms, fish, snails and muscles (clam) and dried turtle foods. Cuttlebones can be used to provide calcium. Turtles are very long lived, some of the smaller ones as long as 20/40 years. Turtles shed which should look thin and clear peeling from the scutes or layer of shell.
Mediterranean House Gecko	Keeping these geckos, they would prefer a tall tank. Males are territorial but females are social, all of them make barking/squeaking noises. 5-6 in a 15-20gal tank but only one male per tank. Males are determinable by femoral and preanal pores. The most ideal set up for them is a semi-tropical. 70-80 temp, cooler nights and 80-85 humidity. However the humidity should be mostly on the dry side, not building up too much moisture on the walls or the substrate and any plants being more 'wet' than just slightly moist. They like to be dry, preferring slightly moist, warm areas, particularly wood. Hides should be tall pieces of bark with smooth sides and plenty of crevasse areas for hiding. The bark should remain slightly damp but mostly dry to the touch. Cork would be very favorable from cork bark, tubes to thick sheets you can roll or layer on the back wall of the terrarium. For breeding you can use a moist humus substrate box though I wouldn't recommend introducing young back into the wild as they are an imported species. An ideal substrate box could be as simple as a small wren bird house or gourd with the moist humus in the bottom of it. It needs to maintain 80-88 degrees for eggs to hatch, once found remove them for incubation without turning the eggs. These geckos are nocturnal and eat a variety of insects including moths and caterpillars, crickets are fine.
