Yesterday I picked up a Zilla 36 x 18 x 20 front open terrarium for the beardie we will be picking up in January. Since we will probably be getting a baby (at a reptile show), I was thinking of installing a temporary tank divider so he has a space about 20" x 18" (thinking of siliconing square dowels to plexiglass, then have some silicone "dots" to attach that to the tank). Or would the full size tank be ok as long as we provided plenty of hides?
Also, I'm planning on getting the Sunblaster T5 and Reptisun 10.0 bulb. It looks like they don't make an 18", so I would need to get the 24" setup (2/3 tank length). I'm thinking I would have the beardie in the portion of the tank that only has part of the bulb.
Does this sound like a good plan, or any ideas on how to tweak it?
