I am looking to get a new enclosure soon for my bearded dragon. I currently have a 40 gallon for my 6 month old and she is growing fast so I have been looking for a new one. I have found some great deals and I know 55 gallon should be the minimum for an adult but is there a maximum? I have found ones that are anywhere from 75 all the way to 150 gallons for not too expensive! Just let me know!

I keep our girls in 40 breeder tanks. They do get a lot of outside time, in the bedroom and outside when it's not too windy or too cold.

True 55 gallons are actually a bad choice for adult beardies, because of the narrowness of the depth, they're only something like 13" deep, the minimum for an adult beardie is actually a 40 gallon breeder tank, which is actually 36" x 18" 17", which is fine for a dragon about 20" or under, but more room is always good, specially if they're longer than 20".

to answer the actual question, about enclosure size, no I don't think one can be "too big", they can be excessive for sure, but I don't think it'd ever be "too" big as long as you could still maintain proper lighting and heat.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
