    hi,

    well ive had my bearded dragon for about a year now and i need to get a bigger tank, does anyone know where in dublin i could get a vivarium that measures at least 48X24X24in?

    also what substrate should i use in my new tank? im using newspaper at the moment. would my beardy be old enough to be put on sand yet?

    thanks

    a 4x2x2 foot tank should cost under €250.

    At a year it likely would mate but to be honest sand is useless
    substrate for a beardy as it can't absorb anything.I would
    use beach chipping (which I do) or aspen.Floor tiles or
    reptile carpet would be pretty good too.
