im new to keeping Lygodactylus Williamsi and was wondering if it was possible to keep anything else in the viv with them.i have a pair and was thinking of getting another female the viv is L22xW16xH36, will this be big enough if it is possible to keep with others?

Well i heard when my little bro got one they can co-exist with gold dust day gecko (phelsuma laticauda) but mine didnt work out since one my day gecko was bigger than it so be cautious and try to make them same size

This is always a risky proposition--if your animals are wild caught, I absolutely would not recommend it. The risk is that they may transmit some disease or parasite to the other species that it doesn't have resistance to. The tiny ones are hard to deparasitize--dosing has to be pretty exact on an animal that weighs so little.

If they are CBB, I would say your cage size may be just barely ok, as long as those measurements are in inches, and not centimeters. You would be best off choosing a nocturnal species of similar size from the same area and environment. Choosing a nocturnal species means the animals will not be awake at the same time to compete with one another. If they're from the same area in the wild, it's less likely they might be carrying a bug that the other animal hasn't encountered.

Some Lygodactylus species have been found in the same area (even on the same bushes) in the wild. I believe two of them are L. kimhowelli and L. mombasicus.

You would want to know everything possible about the two species before you even considered this--you would want to know how territorial they are, what parts of their environment they prefer to utilize, etc etc. Their environmental requirements need to be identical.

In reality, that information simply isn't yet available for the Lygodactylus geckos. The risk would be greater as a result. Is it honestly worth risking their well being, perhaps even their lives, simply to keep more than one species in a cage?

Simply from watching my aggressive L. williamsi female making abortive displays at the mourning gecko in the cage next door, I can say I believe there is a potential for interspecies conflict, even between a diurnal gecko and a nocturnal one.
