Tank and Setup

so the tank should be about 20 to 30 inches long for an adult. personaly i get my tank this size to start out with as hes still a baby so i dont have buy a bigger tank as he gets older. One of the most important things is you have to know the temperature inside the tank. so you have to get a thermometer for the tank. they dont cost alot of money, you could pick one at at your local petshop for no more than 5 bucks! you have to get a light for the tank. you can get this at any petshop. what matters is how many watts you use. your beardies tank should be from 75 to 85 degrees. so it depends on how tall your tank is. i use a 75 watt 24 hour bulb but my tank is pretty tall. for a tank thats about a foot high i recommend a 50 watt light. i am not a big fan of heated mats or rocks because they can get too hot and burn your beardie which could permanently damage your dragon. you also need either carpet or sand for the floor of your tank. as they get older they need the sand. Accessories such as plants logs and backgrounds are your choice. Although i definetley recommend a rock for hanging out on and somewhat little accessories such as plants or logs to make it feel at home. Thanks and read about other parts of care sheet!
