I think either the fish will make a meal of the molted lobster... or the lobster will make a meal of the fish.
I've had crayfish in there and.... yup that's exactly what happend, Ms Smiley would leave them alone completley....until they molted... MMMM soft shell crustatian!
 
Can you tell us what the humidity in that thing? There might be a couple large lizards you can keep if the humidity is not too high.

I do not have a humidity tester handy, all the ones I have are permanently adhered to the walls of my other reptile tanks. The closest idea I can give you is, if I wipe the side off the glass off within 15-20mins it is fogged over over again. I would say that it is a very tropical environment with humidity in the very high range. The top to the tank is glass eccept for a strip of mesh about 4" wide that runs along the back keeping both heat and humidity in.
I'm not too sure about large lizards though. Large Lizards= large mess.
 
What about those firebelly toads. Anyone think they might work?

Maybe a small siren.
 
Firebelly toads will just make the water toxic to the fish -- if not killed by the fish. Plus they prefer to have low water level anyway.

Small amphibians won't do it since they might get caught by the fish. Turtles and large frogs need ample of space. Maybe a tree snake or a large lizard if the humidity is not too high.
 
wat about crabs of some sort? or a species of newt/salamander
 
With that much water in the tank, the humidity is going to be around 100% almost all the time. There aren't many reptiles that can handle that. Even water snakes need to be able to dry out occasionally.
 
Bullfrogs rock! I grew up listening to them singing every summer...inside my living room:)
