Pretty random but have seem some fantastic display cases with a few different animals living in them. Now I'm a gecko man myself (a breeding pair of leos and soon a couple of crested hopefully), but was wondering if my Leos would happily co- habit a large viv/terrarium? I'm not sure on gallon sizes but I'm looking at glass with mesh upper section measuring approx 7ft tall and about 2.5-3ft square.

If not I'm thinking of housing a few cresties in there with a waterfall.

In general, multiple species vivs are frowned on for many reasons. Do a search here on GU as it has been discussed many many times at length.

Will do just as soon as I get to a PC. Mostly on here using my mobile.

I see some places that its frowned upon but I'm pretty sure some species, especially reptile, must live somewhere near other animals in the wild.

They do in the wild live close but usually keep distance or fight. Why would you want to stress them when you dont have to?

I can appreciate they get eaten by other animals but I'm not about to go and put them with their natural preditors.
