Question what is it

okay i know this is'nt going to be easy
i've got no picture i borrowed a digi camera from a friend but it could'nt take a close up
anyhow i got this little critter from a friend who got it off a plant he bought at walmart
it's two inches long half of that is tail
he's brown with a stripe down his back with little diamonds that are a little lighter brown colour
a long skinny tail and feet like a bearded dragon but has fairly smooth skin
i think he looks like an anole but have never seen a brown one to compare it to
any help on identifying it and care for it would be greatly helpful
ive got him in a 5 gallon with hides that he doesnt use and some leaves that he seems to enjoy
i put in some fruit which attracted fruit flies a bowl of small molted mealies,some day gecko food and a water dish
thanks for the help

I would say it sounds like an anole with the exception of the feet being like a beardies..........

Does it look like this?

The description fits a long tailed grass lizard except for the tail only making up for half of its length.......

Or how about this?

Sorry I cannot be of much help, those are the two that came to mind. Does it stick to glass? If it doesn't then you can rule out both green anoles and brown (cuban) anoles.......
