Arent those the dimesntions for a 40 gallon breeder? or are those 2 feet deep? Sounds like you've got decent floor space, (which is what you really need)and some "ok" hieght (doesnt give u too much room to get a good climbimg deco in there) But all in all it sounds good for ONE adult.

Thats pretty small for an adult dragon. Sounds like a 35gal long tank. An adult dragon should be in a 4'x2'x2' cage minimum. Some height can be removed, but nothing lower than 16" to allow some climbing room and still ensure the dragon doesn't get too close to the basking bulb.

Could I try him in a cage this size for a bit and see how he reacts, and if he doesn't like it just build him a big one down the road?
