hey everyone....when my mom gets a new tank for her bearded Dragons i was gonna have a spare 20 gallon long tank that i was letting her use.....so i was thinking of getting a collared lizard.

But i had a few questions for you guys:

1: do they need UV light?

2: How many will be able to fit in a 20 long tank as adults?....i've read some people say only one and some say 2

3: Are they as handleable (if that's a word) as Bearded Dragons?

4: Any other info i should know?.....i already know care for bearded Dragons and Leopard Geckos.....so anything else that i might wanna know about these lizards?

thanks everyone for any help.
