Recommendations for 5ish gallon container

I have one of these it seems to be about the dimensions of a 5 gallon? Obviously wouldn't be able to have a heat lamp so it would have to be something good w/room temperature.

If you're recommending isopods, I'd love for a specific type recommendation

Oooooo I’d definitely suggest isopods and/or millipedes! I love cubaris species but theres so many species out there. Do you want color or activity? And I’d totally recommend Maui millipedes!!

I'm leaning more towards color or just something unique but I'll take literally any suggestions.

Ok then I’d suggest armadillidium species cause they get some beautiful color and are super easy to care for. Also totally agree with pink dragon millipedes but I know Maui’s are very prolific breeders and great starter pedes! Could also do larger species like flat backed millipedes. Cherrys and yellows flats are stunning
