Alright thanks everyone. I can't get a bigger tank in terms of gallons (stand issues), but I can get different dimensions.
Whats better for a vivarium? 20 Gallon Choices:
Length: 24"
Width: 12"
Height: 16"
OR
Length: 30"
Width: 12"
Height: 12"
OR
Length: 20"
Width: 10"
Height: 24"

Maybe some kind of frog? Or newts? I have no idea. lol. But this does sound kinda neat, I'll be interested to see how it turns out. ^_^
BTW, Prime-- how do you find the Stingray? I've been thinking about using one for a 15 gal, but have never met anyone that had one before. >_>

When I used to frequent http://talkto.thefrog.org/, most of them seemed to be vehemently opposed to mixing frogs with other animals or even with different species of frogs.
Research the animals you are considering very thoroughly and make sure the needs of all will be met.

I'm planning on doing this type of thing with a brackish tank, doing some fish and then a beach with some crabs and a muskipper. Freshwater, I dunno what you could do...maybe some firebellied newts or something. Reptiles I would stay away from....any turtle you got would eat the fish and require at least 50-75 gal of water volume. Maybe some sort of lizard or something, but I think you'd be better off with an amphibian than a reptile.
Definitely go with an amphibian. Most reptiles are not semi-aquatic and I can't think of any offhand that are in the trade. Frogs and Newts are the best choices though of course thorough research is a good idea. African Clawed Frogs are often sold to unwary keepers who find out too late that once they get big enough, they will eat almost anything that fits in their mouths.
