A lizard would love the heat! Putting something furry in there sound cruel.

put a praying mantis in there to keep pests out. he might nibble a few leafs here and there but its better him eating a bit of leaf than a whole swarm eating at them.

my cat ate all my plants on two separate occasions, so i say no furry pets. ive also heard about peoples dogs eating there plants

i'm from somewhere that has iguanas. they eat insects, fruits and FLOWERS. buds are flowers.

you can try it, but i don't think it's a good idea.

I have a cat that keeps getting into my closet, as far as I can see she just sleeps in the dirt. No signs of her eating my plants.

It depends on what lizard u put in there, not all lizards would love or be suitable for that enviroment for different reasons.

LOL...snakes and lizards hardly smell anything...only their poop. And "they" will or will not eat ur plants(s). Snakes dont eat green and there is lots of lizards that will NEVER eat any green.

Was it my dogs, LOL? Both my dogs have eaten up plants for me, but they will never do it again...now they know they wont "feel" good eating cannabis plants...hehe. The mantis is a good idea but I would put 2-3 insect eating lizards in there that get tops 15-20cm long (6-8inch.), or they will be to heavy for the branches. If theres not enough insects for them to eat u can easily put a small bowl on the tent floor w some maggots for them to eat.

It a bad idea...as u say they eat leaves, fruits, flowers and insects, depends on what kind of iguana u get...some iguanas eat mainly insects and some mainly greens.

Feel free to ask me for further info on reptiles if u are serious bout getting some for ur grow tent...personally, I would get 1 or 2 snakes, I dont have enough insects in my garden for even 1 lizard to survive, so I'd rather put snake(s) in there and twice a month throw in some mice for them to eat...proportionally for their size, u dont want rodents running around in ur garden ;) I worked in a petshop for 7 years that sold all kinda reptiles, snakes, lizards, frogs, scorpions spiders and what not and food for them.

Feel free to pm whenever ;) If u get a lizard I higly recomend u to get "reptile fluoros", 1 is enough. For many lizards UV light is esential for making use of nutrients and vitamins. For example lizards that dont get proper lighting will in most cases get calcium deficient and grow "bent" legs, spines or tails. U can also use 1 of those old tanning lamps, if they're still available, they are super but u only have them on for 15-30mins/day tops and preferably at least 50-60cm away from the animal, if i remeber correctly those tanning lamps were from Osram and 300W, they generate A LOT of heat. When u decided to get a "pet" I'll call up my former boss for a second opinion on what animal(s) is/are suitable :mrgreen:

:peace:
 
Hey I have two 20 by 10 flowering rooms, one 11x10 veg room and an outdoor balcony greenhouse 20x8. I have 7 lizards and 6 frogs is this enough for the indoor? I have praying mantis and lady bugs for the outdoor.
