Default ideas?

I have a 2.5ft x 2ft x 2ft tank going to be going spare soon, and finally my other half is allowing me to get something to put into it

But I have no idea what!

I dont want another beardie as mines going soon, and i need something I havent already got

I have:
1 x Royal Python
1 x Corn Snake
3 x Leo Geckos
2 x Imperial Scorpions


So, what can I get for that tank do you reckon?

I cant have a spider, and I dont want anything that will grow huge, so no Boa's or LARGE snakes..and I dont want anything I already have...im completey lost for ideas now!

Chams need mesh cages rather than tanks or vivs as they need the air movement. Not sure how they would do in a static environment if you know what i mean.

Hoggies are great wee things, was meant to get one this month but opted for a milk instead, any1 i have spoken to in regards to hoggies love them, got great characters and funny behaviours.

I had a look into this issue with the cage, and the sheets I read said that it could also be a tank aslong as its a proper reptile tank with a mesh top, which it has, so not sure if it will still work

I would assume a wee fan would sort the air movement prob. I dont think that size tank would do a cham for life tho as they like to climb so you would need something a little bigger than 2ft i would imagine. but then again i dont keep chams so prob aint the best person to be giving out advice on them
