No, turtles and lizard's cannot live together, as for one, a turtle is an aquatic animal, and a lizard is not, and for two, they both have different living standards, EG- Different landscape, body-temperature. And last but not least, they could both cause major stress to each other! All in all, it is NOT a good idea to keep turtles and lizards together!!!!!

acctually some people do keep lizards and turtles together but the tank needs to be bloody massive! people keep chinease water dragons with their turtles i know someones who does it needed a tank so big it had to be custom built! it costed him 10k! but he has 3 water dragons and like 8 turtles but u need to have the money rolling in to afford that! i would advise to stick with one or the other . choose lizards ;)

It is generally not recommended to house turtles and lizards together in the same tank. Turtles require different environmental conditions, such as water for swimming and a basking area, while lizards need dry land and specific heating and lighting requirements. Additionally, there could be potential conflicts over food and territory between the two species.
