I wouldn't be surprised if they even took a snap at the fish although I don't think they will catch them to often. It MIGHT be possible to keep a strictly nocturnal gecko type thing with them but it would always be at risk of becoming a meal.... in general it is not a good idea to mix species when it comes to reptiles and amphibians
 
the water area of this is 6 foot long 2 fet wide its aprox 150
 
I responded to this in the other thread... You have a lot of options of what can be housed with CWD's. (See other thread)

Also, you could maintain them with monitor lizards, such as timors, similis, kordensis, prasinus, macrei.

if the water area is >25 gallons you could keep a musk turtle/mud turtle with fish...
might bite the lizard when small?

I would not put a basilisk in there. I'd be worried about it bumping it's snout on the walls.

Personally, I'd keep it simple and keep just a water dragon in there. I think maintaining a large enclosure would be alot easier with just one animal in there.
