I assume for adult animals??

Leopard Geckos. large conticos/50ltr really useful boxes

Corn Snakes. large conticos/50ltr really useful boxes

Royal Pythons. (large conticos, smaller snakes upto about 1200/1500grms)/ (50ltr really useful boxesupto about 1700/2kgs) Ikea Komplement boxes for big girls and if you want to let them stretch out.
Check my website for 50ltr usefull/komplement box size comparison.

Smaller Sand Geckos. dont know
Australian Geckos. dont know

hope helps
mike

Well I'm keeping smaller snad geckos;
S. Petrii
Crossobamon Orientalis
Homonata Horrida
And id like to get more of all of them and possibly some T Robrowskii and others.

Australian geckos (for the far away future)
Nephrurus Amyae
Nephurus Levis Levis
And some Strophurus

Any ideas are great...

Never kept any australians that you listed or really know much about them so cant offer any advice there sorry.

But the smaller sand geckos you listed if you were putting them in tubs I would suggest 15L roughly sized tubs for adult pairs.
