Instructions
Purchase an aquarium. You should get a larger aquarium so that both the fish and lizards have enough room to move about. Purchase rocks and slates that are four to five inches long for the lizard to use as a resting place.
Glue the slates and rocks inside the aquarium using fish tank glue. Allow them to dry overnight.
Place more slates and rocks inside the tank once the others are dry. Place them close enough together that the lizards can jump from one rock to the other with ease. Glue them down and allow them to dry overnight.
Set up plastic plants and decorations inside the aquarium. Be careful not to over decorate because the fish and the lizards need room to live and move around.
Fill the aquarium with warm tap water so the slates and rocks are only partially covered. The slates and rocks will be like a beach for the lizards to come out of the water and rest upon. If done correctly, the aquarium will be half water and half open air.
Treat the water with chemicals to remove chlorine. Add tropical fish that are not big enough to attack the lizards. Add the lizards. Ask your local pet store representative which lizards can coexist with fish.
