Default spare tank, what to get?

i have a spare tank its 2ft long 15inches wide and 1ft high, its glass with sliding glass doors. im wandering what can i get that can be comfortably housed in it?

oh by the way, it has a sealed crack in the bottom so not very water proof

thanks

i already have other tanks to put a mantis and a hermit crab in, when i can get more pets

and as for snails, i already have 3 and my gf 13, so they're kinda lost the appeal as a new pet haha

I have a tank of a similar size and i'm contemplating a Pacman frog or a group of Fire bellied toads. Leaning more towards the Pacman atm though hehe. Will be a last minute making up my mind purchase this weekend at the shop i think :P

I had a spare tank exactly the same size as this, and it also had a cracked bottom

I got myself my first Scorpion. Seems to like it
