tank and sand.

[chirish]

Does anyone know where I can find a decent prices 55 gallon tank. And what type of sand should I use for my bearded dragon or should I keep the repti-carpet. Mushu is about 12 inches long.

Craigslist is a good site for tanks and lots more. My son and I both got our 50's there. Sand is not recommended. I have ceramic tiles left over from my bathroom remodel - work great for clean up. Not only can sand cause digestive problems...........it becomes smelly after a while.

craigslist for the 55 tank...my beardie is 13 inches long and he is on sifted play sand.. if hes a messy eater than i would suggest the repticarpet but my beardie likes the sand to sleep on and hes not a messy eater. a lot of people use tile since its easy to clean. but sand is there natural habitat thats also a reason i have mine on sand

Half of my tank is sand and the other is tile. Garno is right, my beardie seems to like to sleep in the playsand too. I had the repti-carpet when my beardie was a baby but it looked dirty most of the time. Good luck on finding a tank
