Cool little dragons! A background with tree roots and branches coming out would look good, just an idea!

You have got to love longirostris. They are magic animals. You have got yourself a couple of super cute young’uns there.
These guys are highly arboreal, much more so than most people think. They mostly forage on the ground but will climb the nearest suitable object if they feel at all threatened. They also retire to shrubs and small trees to sleep at night. They are a particularly active lizard and so require a substantial floor space as well as he height. APS member longirostris has maintained these and numerous other small dragons for many years. He is a top bloke to talk to and I am sure he would be more than happy to share his expertise with you if you send him a PM.

Be certain to keep them well hydrated. I have seen an over-representation of Gowidon longirostris with articular gout from kidney failure. Mine used to like immerse immerse themselves in their water bowls.
Thanks every one for the advice 
Am very happy with them these guys have made me want to get my reptile room set up even sooner, so that I can put them in a proper display enclosure, they are so entertaining to watch
I have a water dish in there, which they use regularly, I have also seen them drinking from it twice,
I have seen them jump and they are like the Hulk as a lizard when it comes to jumping.
