I have two empty exo terra tanks, so im looking for suggestions on what can be kept in them besides crested geckos (already have some).

Ive thought about island locale leachies, mossy leaf tail gecko, tree frogs, thats it so far.

Thanks in advance.

Red eyes i am considering. Never kept frogs but im all for learning.

I am into snakes wiggles, what do you have in mind?

I thought about an asian vine snake but havent read into them yet. An arborial snake would be cool.
 
I would prefer something handleable. Can ATB's be tamed?

Yes, they can be tamed if you start with a baby, preferably a CBB one. Wild caught juveniles & adults almost always will remain feisty while babies in general seem to be more "tameable" if you're willing to work with them.
 
Lol... well they CAN be tamed with some patience and an insane amount of luck... You are much more likely to end up with an angry snake than you are with a nice one regardless of what you start with and how much work you put into it... i have seen very few "tame" atb's and those that I have still needed extra caution. They are just an edgy species.... So if you are thinking about an ATB resign yourself to the fact that it will probably have an attitude forever but be confident and hopeful that you will be able to tame it down as well.
you could be a green tree python which has a much higher likely hood of being tamed down with some work than an ATB. and if you are looking at leachies you can afford a GTP
My vote would def be for a leachie though, awesome and impressive animals.

I probably did get lucky with my old little CBB male Amazon tree boa; he was very calm for an ATB after he got settled in.

The OP does have two empty Exo Terras after all, so I vote for an ATB/ETB/GTP in one & a leachianus in the other. :thumbsup:
 
Yeah I'd call it luck lol
I forgot they did say they had two.... If ya got the money then definitely a nippy arboreal and a leachie!! :D and if that's to much for you feel free to send one or the other my way
