Hello! I have 3 extra tanks and was looking for suggestions for things to put in them. I have a 20gal, a 2.5ftL by 1.5ftH by 1ftW, and a 3ftL by 1.5ftW by 1.5ftH with front opening doors.
I have some specific requirements:
Diurnal
Lizard/gecko (might put inverts in 20gal)
Typical diet (Dubia roaches, BSFL, vegetables, greens, CDG, or BTS diet.)
Has to fit comfortably
I am willing to convert to arbs. No preference on arid versus tropical habitats.
Thanks!

Oh there are many species depending on the size you want and what's available. The bigger species are P. madagascarensis grandis (Giant Day Gecko) P. standingi (Standings Day Gecko), smaller species include P. klemmeri (Yellow headed Day Gecko), P. quadriocellata (Peacock Day Gecko). Although not a true day gecko, Lepidodactylus lugubris (Mounting Gecko) is another small, colorful species.
All the above species are insectivorous/frugivorous. Meaning they eat insects supplemented by some fruit in their diet. This is easy accomplished in captivity using fruit baby food.
Remember though, only one male per enclosure. The males will fight amongst themselves for dominance.
This is not a complete list of species, but they are the most common and easiest to find among dealers.

Lizards man, you need lizards

I see you posting all over trying to fit critters into empty tanks- always makes me nervous to see that from anyone

I did reptiles/frogs still do, then Ts still do

Find something your passionate about- research it a lot then get it

Right now it seems like you’re passionate about filling up empty boxes instead- that’s never good
