hmm I might have to look into those too

 

what would do good at 72-78 f and 60% humid ??

 

Bearded Dragon, they are very nice reptiles don't mind being handled and are fun to watch them chase around crickets, but when they are young till they are about a year old they can eat over 20-30 crickets a day but I feed mine crickets every other day since he is 6 months old, or a Chinese water dragon

 

If you don't want something that eats insects, I love my Uromastyx. They are almost exactly like beardies in every way involving temperament and care, but they eat Veggies and the occational fruit. Uro's and Beardies both need 10.0 UV bulbs and strong basking lights, so be sure this is something you can afford several times a year.

Also, it's not reccomended to keep small pets in tanks because of ammonia build up. So no furry critters!

 

I would recommend NOT getting an Iguana. I'm glad no one has suggested it. A juvI will fit well, but within 6-12 months time will easily outgrow an 80g. In about 2-3 years a properly fed and cared for iguana will be 4-6ft long! They eat veggies, greens and fruit. They can become your best friend, with some people letting their iguanas have free reign of the house, although without enough human interaction they can become aggressive. Please do plenty of research if you consider a green iguana and know that ANY size aquarium will become too small for one in a very short time.

We ended up building a huge outdoor cage for our guys They escaped all the time, but we got them back every time. Everyone in the neighborhood loved them lol

 

That's great you get them back! My iguana Zoe lives in a 6'x5'x4' custom cage, takes up half the room. If she was a little better potty trained, I'd probably let her have the whole room but my computer and now my guppy tank is in that room and I'm too afraid she will poop all over the place!

 

Carnivorous plants would be cool.

 

Definitely a bearded dragon.

 

I would say something sort of small day gecko. At mg local reptile shop they had these lovely tiny and communal (Or atleast not aggressive to another) geckos. They where bright green and they bred! They where beautiful they had a sort of golden shimmer at times. They had them in a tiny viv you could do a truly amazing set up in an 80 gallon
