Get a fish tank (the larger the better), several pieces of slate (about 5 inches long and 1/2 inches thick), and two large tubes of aquarium sealant.
Draw a removable straight line all the way around the tank on the outside glass 1/3rd of the way from the top. (2/3rds of tank will be water, 1/3rd is lizard habitat.)
Set the tank on its side with the top facing you and glue pieces of slate on the inside of tank on your line. Each piece must be level with each other and spaced so that a lizard can hop or swim from one to another, but not too close (so the lizard can get out of the water). The slate will act as a beach.
Wait for the sealant to dry, then glue more slates on the remaining 3 sides of tank.
After the glue is dry, use more sealant to strengthen the bond between glass and rock.
When the glue dries, and the tank is set up for fish, fill tank up to the main slates.
Cycle the tank. This step is important to the health of the fish.
Buy community tropical fish (small ones that won't drag lizards under) and lizards that are comfortable with water and won't eat your fish.
