We are, we've had the little fella two weeks tomorrow and he most certainly seems happy most of the time (still adjusting)
As for Kari he's 7 in August and I've not really had many problems provided I have a very good filter, lighting and heat. The lighting is much the same as your beardie, just due to the swimming they don't necessarily need a 10 but can have a 5 as they like to come and say hello and swim to the top to be closer and such. He does need cleaning out a minimum of once every three to six weeks (the six weeks is stretching it really). They are dirty but half of it is the heat. The smell is easily sorted now they have king british water freshner. I've never thought boy you smell (or at least not that often) but it does its job. Much like beardies I'd imagine the more they have become widespread pets the more there is available for them. Once you get used to it and him/her they are really simple and wonderful pets to have I'm so glad I got him. I've been a bit spoilt I think with him actually as his food a year costs me roughly £15-£20.
