[mpeel]

yer basicly

thanks max

I think $300 for a Beardie and that entire setup (lights included) is a reasonable price...

I, personally, would want to keep an adult Beardie in a larger setup though - about 4x2x2 minimum...

Whats the size of the enclosure and what does it come with?

I can see uv light and a red basking globe. Anything else?

 

[mpeel]

it come's with all the stuff u can see there plus two timers, water mister, some nutrent powder and two boxes of woodies
the tank is about 4 foot long and 2 foot high 2 foot wide so its pritty good but i will upgrade it

p.s ill upload a new pick that shows it a bit better

 

[GrumpyTheSnake]

Well, considering that the tank alone is about $150 retail, then you have the stand, the lights, all the other bits and pieces, and of course the animal... not too bad. Is she a standard grey or one of the colour phases??

 

[mpeel]

m8 to be honest im not shore. she has a very dark black back with sandy sides and belly and bright yellow around her eyes lol soz

 

[mpeel]

there u go have a beta look

 

[Lovemydragons]

Yeah mine is in a 4x2x2 and there is heaps of room. Should be fine size wise. And pretty good price overall for the package.

the tank doesn't look 4 foot in those pics..
maybe my length perception is fooling me :S
but i know im short......and... ..yeha

 

[mpeel]

nar i think your right looks alot shorter that 4 foot

 

[Scleropages]

Looks like a 3 foot tank , but still a good price

 

[Scleropages]

sorry most likey a 80cm aqua one etc , just upgrade the tank when the dragon grows if you buy it

 

[mpeel]

thanks lol

From what you have said and by the looks of her the beardie is an adult .
Keeping her in a 3 foot tank is cruel in my opinion.
Absolute smallest tank for an adult beardie is a 4foot.
Buying that setup is useless if your going to upgrade as what are you going to do with the tank? Even my beardie bubs, when I had them, had a 4foot tank to roam around in.
Also the thermal gradient in that tank the way the heat lamp is situated would be minimal. Not sufficient for an adult. It should be place at one end.
Sorry to sound negative, but if you want whats best for your animals, dont buy that tank.
