    I know you said no geckos, but Giant Leaf-Tailed geckos (Uroplatus fimbriatus) can get up to a foot or more in length. Two of them would be perfect for a 25 gallon tank.

  • you stupid y wont u want a bearded dragons or a gecko they are like the best lizards especially leopard geckos!!!

    armadillo lizard

    armadillo lizards can live in a 20 gallon tank temps should be 95-110 on the hot end and 75-85 on the cool end

    i use 2 8.5 inch dome fixtures one with with UVB and a 40 watt and one with UVA and a 75 watt

    use cage carpet but cover lots of it with large flat rocks

    feed crix meal worms super worms wax worms silk worms pheonix worms and occasional pinky mice

    provide hide area and water dish

    mist every few days

    try long tailed grass lizards, they are a great and easy to care for starter lizard and you can have about 4 in a 25 gallon tank.

    Source(s): i have a few of them but im gonna give them to my bro and get a beared dragon=)

    There's alot of small lizards available. Maybe a small plated lizard (forget the name, they have blue heads), or a Jewelled or Curly-tail......

    ** Edit: Plated is a "Rainbow Plated"--commonly available, near me:

    Mountain Horned Dragons are neat...like to climb on branches though (saw some at wholesaler last week):

    If you don't want a specific pet, and just want to fill a tank because you have an empty tank, then the best lizard is none, or a plastic toy one.

    It's an animal, not room decor.
