Housing Recommendations

[BDRookie]

I'm currently using a pentagon shaped aquarium for my new beardie (haven't picked a name yet). My question is....I was on Amazon.com earlier and saw a couple Exo Terra terrariums and vivariums. I really don't know which would be best for a beardie. I want her to have space to run around and chase prey and still be comfortable as she grows. Any recommendations would be awesome because this current aquarium setup isn't really working right now.

Thanks in advance

I've never owned one, but I personally am not too impressed with them. You can find used aquariums for fairly cheap, and Petco has $1 a gallon sales every few months it seems. A 40 gal. breeder tank is adequate for an adult.

I would love to buy a nice aquarium setup from Petco but I'm stationed overseas. So its quite hard to get my hands on certain products lol. It can be quite expensive buying the local products and then today I stumbled upon the Exo Terra line of products. So I became curious to find out who else in the beardie family was using them. :study:

You could possibly try making your own. Lots of good guides in the DIY section and threads of people who have made there own. You can make it as big as you want and its usually way cheaper to make it yourself. I don't know how much the materials cost overseas though, but I would assume less than buying the premade tank.
