    Re: Feedback on this enclosure, please?

    My little dude is in a 40 gal, so the enclosure size isn't too big of a deal. I put paper on the back and sides, on the inside of the enclosure, to provide security. Putting it on the outside of the glass causes a reflection, which is no good.

    She should have a long UVB light so that it's present throughput the cage, and not just in a corner. And temps should definitely be checked. The heat lamp she has is a mini, which doesn't produce a lot of heat which I found out the hard way. And CHE fixtures are great for heat, but not all beardies will bask under them, since they tend to associate light with heat (there are always exceptions. The top is also covered, which traps heat and makes it harder to create a proper gradient for thermoregulation. And temp guns and thermometers are a must. Just a few minor tweaks and that enclosure could be a great one!
