use a glass tank or a custom made cage. reptrareums are mainly for chamelions. there ok for sunning but they block alot of the uvb i tested it and the differance from in the open to inside the cage was tramendous so mutch that it would have been better to just use the uvb bulb i had. should I use a retarium or something else for my beared dragon?

You can get one from Glass Cages because you can get a 100 gallon cage for $95 but you would have to go to a reptile show because they're cages cost $180 to ship.

I could never get glasscages.com to answer my email. I found a 60 gallon terraium with slideing screen tops a t alocal pet shop for $89 is that cheap enough? Its huge! More then enough for a pair of beardie for their entire life. Also if you can get a bulb to shine through the reptarium at a high ernough UVB range or rig a tube to hang inside it it would work great and be very cost effective. Beardie do not require high humidity levels so the reptariums would work well (unless you live in a very cold climate then keeping temps up would be hard)

Yes Pooka that's cheap. At PetCo I got a 40 gallon cage for $90 big mistake. I then went to a reptile show and found a 100 gallon cage for $95 dollars.
