I will hopefully be getting my first Bearded Dragon at the Repticon Atlanta Reptile & Exotic Animal Show on January 10! :notworthy: :headbang: :lurk: :love10: :mrgreen: :bleick:
I have a few questions and need your advice for my planning of his enclosure. Please tell me your opinion on which I should do, and why you think so.
Cage
* Wooden Cage 50x27x25 150 gallon (http://atlanta.craigslist.org/for/898251230.html)
* 40+ gallon (long) aquarium
* 40+ gallon acrylic Big Apple Herp tank
* Build my own 4'x2'x2' wooden cage
Substrate
I will use paper towels until he is at least 10"
* Tiles-no grout
* Tiles-grout
* Reptile Carpet
* Natural Reptile Sand (not calci-sand)
* Alfalfa Pellets
* Washed Screened Playsand
Lighting and Heating
* Zilla Halogen Flourescent Combo Fixture with Daylight Full Spectrum Flourescent Bulb (12 hrs.), 75 Watt Blue Light (12 hrs.), 75 Watt Red Night (12 hrs.), and 25 Watt Black Night (24 hrs.)
* 100 Watt Mercury Vapor Bulb (brand suggestions?)
* 100 Watt CHE, Undertank heater, and ReptiSun 10.0 in Home Depot fixture
Decor
* Build fake rock structures, with caves, walls, stairs, basking platforms, built-in plants, climbing/shedding rocks, and hides
* Half log, driftwood, and basking branches
Thanks in advance!
