I am seeking some advice...
My beardie is still young, but growing quick. He's probably about 8 inches right now.
I've been looking to upgrade his home and so far, this is the best one I can find:

36” x 18” x 18” (WxDxH)
I can't help but think there has to be something a little larger available, but I can't find any (without paying a lot for a custom setup). I know everyone has been saying Beardies don't need huge tanks, but I would love to offer him a home with ample room.
Does anyone know anywhere else I can look for something maybe 48 inches long (instead of 36) but still 18" (or more) depth? Or perhaps a place that offers reasonably priced custom tanks using the dimensions I am looking for? My current tank is 48" x 12" x 20", 50 gallons (long, but only a foot deep). I almost feel like I'd be downgrading because I'll be losing 1 foot in total width (in exchange for 6 extra inches in depth).
As an adult, would Drogo feel too confined in the tank mentioned above or do you think this would be a smart purchase? I found the terrarium above for $130 at a local PetSmart but just haven't pulled the trigger on it yet.
