Testing out some compatibility scenarios. 5 fire-belly toads, a crested gecko, and a bahaman anole. Been hanging out for a couple weeks not, and no one bothers each other. Any suggestions for my set-up? I feel like it's a little boring... Thanks!
Suggestions for my Set-Up?

How is your lighting setup? If you've only got one heat producing bulb up there I'd say you're fine, but if both sides of the enclosure are getting top heat then I'd say your crested is likely to have problems down the road.
For the enclosure itself, I would add more vines/perches in that large empty vertical space you have. The lizards will appreciate having the extra room to roam and right now the space is pretty wasted for all its inhabitants.

Thanks for your response. I'd figure I'd at least have one after 40 views... I have the UVB going on both sides, and the heat lamp on the right side. The crested stays on the left side, and the guys who want to bask stay on the right.
So you're saying to just add something going up the middle?

Live plants would add a lot

You could stick a pothos or Philodendron in the middle; they don't need a ton of light and are easy to care for.
Well now I have a little problem. I put my own divider in there to separate water from land. After a couple days, I noticed a leak. I pulled everything out, sealed it up with a new sealant, let it dry (possibly for not long enough), and now -2 days later- I see the water is leaking again. -_- Any ideas?
I'm not really looking for a temporary fix though. I don't want it to leak at all. I want to stop the leaks permanently. The divider is plexiglass, and the bottom of the terrarium is glass. Can you not seal glass to plexiglass?
Is your background part of your sealing solution? My guess would be that whatever the background is made of, it isn't water-tight. I have successfully (and quite easily) sealed glass with plexi using silicone, so that shouldn't be your issue.
As for the plant, I would add items horizontally to increase the upstairs real estate, not vertical from the bottom. I prefer magnetic furniture over suction cups, though my supplier is running very short on them these days.
