    Clowns are on the small side and they would not be a good roommate for the lizards you mention. If I were to mix them with any lizard it would have to be something really small, like a dwarf gecko, Lygodactylus sp., but then again I would not mix them to begin with. Now the problem with mixing is two fold. First, both would be wild caught from two totally different parts of the world. They would be carrying pathogens that the other would have no immunity to. Second, most frogs secret toxins and the clown treefrog, Dendropsophus leucophyllatus is no exception. To keep the two together would most likely cause the lizard to die from the frog's toxins.
    If you were to get red-eyes you would want captive bred stock. The problem with that is that CB red-eyes that would be available for sale will be too small to be safely housed with your lizards. You could get wild caught red-eyes of appropriate size, however they will be carrying pathogens that the lizards will have no immunity to.
    To be truthful, I wouldn't mix the lizards with each other either. The chameleon will need to be housed a mesh cage. To keep it in a tank is to condemn it to death. Chameleons also aren't the easiest animal to care for.
