Hey there, I've been thinking about getting a Beardie for the last few months and have done a fair amount of research and made a little bit of investment into the idea already. I have an old aquarium from pets in the past (a turtle at one point and a small iguana at another) and said aquarium happened to be EXACTLY the perfect size to fit comfortably in my room.
The tanks' dimensions are:
Height: 42cm (16.5 inches)
Length: 76cm (30 inches)
Width: 32cm (12.5 inches)
My intention is to get my Beardie as a baby and my primary fear is that my lights, if resting on a tank cover may be too far for him to properly absorb the nutrients he needs from the light. I figured I'd rectify this by including a reptile hammock close to the tank cover, as well as a rather concentrated basking light considering I live in a colder environment (I live in the Laurentians in Quebec).
Is this tank going to be okay? I can take a picture if needed.
