bearded dragons in a fish tank

[yarraboyz]

Hi i have heard that keeping bearded dragons in a old (3ft) fish tank is bad because it dose not give them enough room when they are fully grown to turn around in comfort. is this true?

 

[ajandj]

That and the Beardies will scare the fish.

i had mine in a big fish tank for a while, but they are messy and it was hard to clean out cos i'm a shortazz, other than that the tank had no other issues. 3ft is too small tho for an adult, mine were in a 5ft

what lizard would you recommend for a 3 foot fish tank?

Sandswimmers.
