Im sure everybody will tell you the same thing. Dont mix species unless you have a HUGE encloser and for something that size geckos are always a great choise, or a BD if you plan on getting a bigger encloser. Whats your experience with amphibians and reptiles?

Yep a White’s Tree Frog will do fine in a 20 gallon (assuming it’s a 20 gallon tall??) with the UTH. I have my 2 babies in a 10 gallon right now (just til the reptile show in May), and they have a UTH on one side that I leave on all the time, and they both sleep on the glass right above it. The only thing is, if you use a loose substrate like your jungle earth stuff, put do some repti carpet first so they don’t burrow under your substrate and burn themselves by sitting directly on top of your UTH.

Most the most responsible thing would not to mix species at all, even if the encloser is really big, you can try it but it will only stress your animals. Don’t mix.

Unless you are an expert reptile keeper you should not get a chamelean. They are very hard to take care of. Don’t spend 169 dollars on something that may die right away, besides chameleans don’t like to be held. if i were you i would get a crested gecko
