Hey guys, I'm rescuing a beardie that was found on a train track. He has metabolic bone disease, I need tips on the best tank set up for him.
The vet said he needs to be in a smaller tank, with flat ground. He gets anxiety in anything bigger than a 40 gallon (it looks like, I'm used to fish tanks so thats what I'm basing it off of) and is currently staying in a 20 gallon. I'm going to look for a 30ish one.
What substrate would be best ideal, along with lights? I plan on getting a repti sun uv light for him as well.
This is my first time having a beardie as my own, can anyone help me with specifics on how to set things comfortably up? Taking special care regarding the size of enclosure as well.
