Hi everyone just wondering if I can move my beardie back to his 40gallon long from the new one I built him I think he may be to young for it right now he's fine but I made it more for him as adult he's 11 weeks old just don't know if I'll stress him out to much this would make it his third move from his 40 to his new viv back to 40 should I do this or not thanks everyone please help just want to be best parent I can be!

If he is active/alert and eating well I'd let him be. Some of them get stressed by big spaces but if you don't see signs of that (hiding, lethargic or aggressive behavior, lack of appetite etc) then he is probably content and I'd let him enjoy the space. It's a wonderful home for him.

Yeah vinegar works well to spot clean and get solid bits up. Then I usually sanitize by spraying some F10 or spraying the area with a steam cleaner.

Sounds like he might be relaxing. The bright orange colors usually mean they are content/happy from what I've seen.

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
