Hello everyone, I have an empty 20G tank(24"L, 12"W, 15"T) and I would like to add a reptile to it.:)

Pet stores around my place don't have the Poly's I want, so I guess its back to dry land animals for this tank.:irked:

I realy likes KSB's but, to my knowledge they hard to feed and its not like I can't handle it, but I rather something that I don't need to worry about.:(

I want an animal that I can keep for life in a tank that size. I'm not sure if their is a reptile that is relitivly easy to get(I need to drive 4 hours to get it:irked:) and still live in a 20G.:confused:

All suggestions welcome.:)

I have like 4 bags of cypress mulch here so if it can live on that, thats even better.:D

Whats with feeding KSBs? They don't eat often, but thats not a big deal.

Snake that can stay in a 20....corns, kings, most milks, rosy boas,..

Lizards? most geckos, yellow-lined plated lizard, MT horned dragon, agamas, collared lizard, true fire skink...
 
Ya I saw I nice milk snake for sale on a classified add. I just always thought they needed more room to strech out or something.

Regardless, my search will go on until I find something that interests me, and I will post pics.

Yeah, kenyan sand boas aren't hard to feed...milksnakes are a good one too. Snakes really don't need much space to "stretch" or exercise. There's always house snakes, kingsnakes, children's pythons, hognose, and others.
 
My mom gave me a great idea. Why not get a clawed frog for the tank. Their cheaper and I have all the equipement for the tank. I had one when I was young but I didn't know how to take care of it properly, this new one will have a much better life here.

So I gues thats what I choose. Thanks for all your help everyone.
