I've got an old 4x1x1 (feet) fish tank for my 2 beardies, they are however only babies at the moment, so the size will increase.
I have a 15inch heat mat under one end, with a 18inch UVB above it. The other end has the heatlamp.
I'll get piccys up again later. |

Depends on what size the beardie is now. I may actally keep the length and depth, but adjust the height of mine, making another layer. (Chinchilla cage style) Mine love climbing, that follows shortly after sitting in the 'sun'.
They eat, sit under the heatlamp climb
My aeris has taken to challenging me recently, she's losing that battle. |

Make one. I regularly go have a look down the tip. You can get some big cabinets and bureaus down there real cheap sometimes. |

I'm thinking of a beardie next, I currently have my corn in a vivexotic 3ft viv with stand and was hoping to get another the same size for a beardie. Would this be ok, as I am just having the one in there? |

Again, 4x2x2 as a min is a ballpark rule. They do need a fair bit of space, and they LOVE climbing. (at least mine do anyway. ) |
