What to do with a 75 gal tank

[joesteel]

Are you talking about just two different species or just more than one of a single species? The latter would be more feasible.

Oh, and another suggestion is a pair of Collared lizards.

More than one of a single species.

Yeah, that should be ok. As long as you didn't put two males together, most the animals I've mentioned should be okay in pairs. But except for the collareds and the Mt horned dragons, three would be too much.

I'd suggest not putting two snakes together. In my experience and the experiences of many people I've talked to, one will become dominant and the other will become very stressed and stop eating.

Lots of reptiles are territorial as well, so you should look into that before you put a bunch of them together.

If your looking at lizards maybe a bearded dragon? possibly two? ......i think that would be cool........

To each his own. I've kept snakes together before without any issues. But I agree not all reptiles get along with their own kind. Research is definitely warranted.

Make sure that It's 2 females and not 2 males or 1 male 1 female or else the dominant male will likely kill the other. I would also reccomend a couple of Ackie Monitors

O You will have to upgrade in the future if you get the ackies, but they're worth it

Frog city? With what kind of frogs?

Any sort of frogs that won't destory each other. With a 75g, a quick false bottom to set up a stream and a inlet/outlet for the stream to cycle. That or just build around a small 5g pond inside of the tank using small pieces of sealed in plexiglass strips. With a nice top, screen maybe, that won't let anything out you could throw a couple of anoles in as well. When mixing species though, give them plenty of plants and hiding spots so they can claim a home, and have a little less stress.

I suggest firebellies, and anything around their size or slightly biggers, so they don't try to munch on each other. Mine don't and seem to get along just fine since they all have their respective stomping ground. Maybe a couple of green tree frogs, a white, maybe a dwarf clawed frog for the pond? It's definitely a safe bet to research the individual frogs to see how active they are, and maybe how agressive they can be, but for the most part I've found frogs to be pretty chill dudes who love a belly full of food. Most get the impression that they are way too sedentary, and boring, but once they get used to you around the cage they relax, and almost always know when you're about to feed them. They'll start hopping around.

What kind of snakes have u kept together?

I've kept ratsnakes and giant hognose snakes together (as in pairs of the same species). A couple of times, my ball python had some temporary roommates of similar size, including a red-tail boa, a few large ratsnakes, and once a burrowing python. Now, I don't generally recommend mixing species, but I will say I had no issues mixing those guys either. If habitat requirements are similar, the snakes are of near-equal size and there's no risk of incompatibility (remember that males snakes can snap at each other, and some species are snake-eaters), then I don't have any big reservations on keeping different species together.
