at least 36" x 18" which is basically a 40 gallon breeder size tank.

I like to use 60 gallon or larger for the adults. Gives them plenty of room to roam around in.

i think a 40 gallon should be sufficient...

i sometimes keep adults in smaller tanks, but this is because they get plenty of exercise in their outdoor enclosure, and running around my air-conditionless home (*sigh*).

55 Gal tank is the minimal for an adult dragon. Or any enclosure that is at least 4 feet long, by 2 feet high and 2 feet deep. It's alright to get for a lower tank but the floor space is better than height. Bigger is always better to give the dragon a comfortable home.
