How do you set up a bearded dragon tank?

Answer 1

Here are the essentials for a Bearded Dragons cage Bearded Dragons must have at least two sources of heat. They need a long UVB light lamp and a heat lamp with at least a 60 watt bulb. You must maintain at least 80 degrees in its terrarium. The UVB bulb is important because it supplies vitamins and other nutrients that the sun gives off, but never place the terrarium in direct sunlight. For the flooring you should use sand or small rocks, but if you have a baby bearded dragon you should use terrarium liner. Terrarium liner is easier to clean. The babies do not pay much attention to what they are eating, so when they ingest sand they will digest their intestines and die. They also need plants such as cactus, long grass, and plants you may find in a dessert, but try not to put any more than four plants. Remember, make the terrarium as close to a dessert biome as you can. You may want to put a dessert back drop, because if the terrarium is near a mirror, the lizard may get confused and might try to attack his reflection and will result in him hurting himself. Last, you must place a dish of water in the cage, also place either small or large crickets, flightless fruit flies, and/or meal worms in the cage. All of these items may seem pricey, but I believe it is worth it. Most of these supplies can be purchased at Pet Co and Pet Smart.

Answer 2

There is such a thing as a dragon.

You need:

-heat bulb + lamp

-Heat pad

-UVB bulb + lamp

-a 4ft x 2ft x 2ft (lxwxd) terrarium (Sorry, nothing smaller than this is suitable for an adult bearded dragon)-Daithi

-Substrate

-Hide

-Piece of driffed wood for climing

-Water dish

-Food dish (for veggies)

-Spray bottle for humidity (Since they come from a very arid landscape, I wouldn't recommend spraying. You do NOT want to increase the humidity in a Bearded Dragon terrarium, it increases the risk of several respiratory infections) - Daithi

-Thermometer and hydrometer (inside the tank)

-2 Spare tank or plastic container (1 for feeding, 1 for keeping crickets)

Answer 3

first, you need a heat lamp cuz they are from the dessert and a stick so they can bask. also, you need a hiding place for them like a mini cave or a log tunnel. and you also need a water bowl and a food bowl
