Bearded Dragon Tank

[JoeBeck51]

Very nice dude this is insane. What did you use for it as in materials and such. Please get back to me. Thanks

[progainmaster]

wow good job mate. you must have some really happy beardies

[mimiOchina]

This was amazing ... You've given me some new ideas. How much did it cost you?

[shakey2277]

That is shit.......... ha ha ha Nah that is a fantastic tank i love it

[oldschooldude2]

Shouldnt cost much at all if you know what your doing.

[KingFC163]

How would you clean

[1000RRboyJay]

that is the bes viv ive seen, congrats man

[ilovemen747]

small tank. my tank is 4x2x3 m

[MrWebbsy]

Absolutely amazing job, well done. this makes me want to do mine. i got two beardies, obviously foam is weak does the plaster give it strength, looks or both. in your tank you have a middle bit, i thought it would be a good idea to do the same but put a separator to split the tank (my tank is L:140cm x H:67cm x W:56cm so its big enough). i like your set up and you have gave me good ideas, thanks for posting :)

[madmiles]

That......is a beautiful tank! Great job!

[davidhamann0606]

This looks like its made from liquid nail...

[reptilefan1231]

my beardys are now very jealous

[TheDnbspecial]

@MySTiicLlaMa i have 2 bulbs producing UV light. and a tube light also for UVA & B

[TheDnbspecial]

I would like 2 do a new tuturial video ... "HOW TO BUILD A TANK IN DETAIL".

So all the steps how 2 build a tank from scratch.

!!! IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN SUCH A VIDEO PLS SEND ME QUESTIONS U LIKE TO KNOW AND THUMB UP !!!

And thanks a lot to all the subcribers and all the possitive feedback i got from you. :) I'm happy that so many people are intrested in the video. So thanks again and tell all the people you know so someday we might hit the 100k views someday ;D .

[Aquajerryum]

I can only say I'd live there if they don't want too. Great job! An inspiration.

[pupyup12]

thats so nice but i would be afriad shed fall

[1991dieter]

NICE



[WWECarrotWrestler]

Thats Is massive

[Shadowfax1245]

This is so epic!!!!!!! I would love to make a cage like this for my leopard geckos! Where did you get a tank that size! Also the grass that's in there (not sure of it's actual name) is that real or what did you use to make it?

[kitsubugchan]

This is truly amazing! I want to build a 200 gallon tank for my bearded dragons, you should make a step by step instructions or something.

[AngelaBohanan]

Hey email me I will pay for the instructions on making this. angelabohanan@hotmail.com

[TheDnbspecial]

@AngelaBohanan i will do a video soon how to make such a tank step by step no worries u don't need 2 pay ;)

[GeckoGuy922]

You got some lucky beardies man

[WayfarerYouth1]

Amazing setup, do you have any trouble cleaning it?

[haydenrocks1234555]

@WayfarerYouth1 lol i was about to say the same thing before i saw ur comment

[TheDnbspecial]

@WayfarerYouth1 it takes an hour daily 2 clean and spray it and all the rest that is my duty ... clean water dish and for the food ... and so on ... 

[Jelly1567]

maby U SHOULD

NOT SHOW sLIdes

[1966196619]

that was amazing and i was wondering if you have a water station to relax in because it looks like it would get hot in there my bearded dragons when they feel hotnthe will go relax under a little water fall or sit in the water dish :( oh well but just wonderimg if you did because in the video i did not see one.



[TheDnbspecial]

@1966196619 yes it does have a water dish unfortunally i cleaned the tank and forgot 2 put water again, i noticed after the photoshooting :)

[homiejman50]

ur beardies r gonna live like kings!

[peteroius]

Stunning , well done mate, looks fantastic and plenty of room

[CalvinTeeKai]

you could fit urself in there

[TheDnbspecial]

@CalvinTeeKai yes i did already ;)

[hydralisk3313]

Advice to make it look better? It looks pretty good; BUT... it would look much better if it had more plants. (maybe some cactus?) idk, I'm an aquascaper. -.-

[TheDnbspecial]

@hydralisk3313 the problem (except from artifical plants) bearded dragons will eat all at least 1ce 2 try it so i sticked 2 the desert look ;)

[MrYour101]

you could live in there jk

[richieestrada24]

hey ur tank is bad ass i love it. ive had 3 bearded dragons n i love them but right im adding a water dragon to my collection. i would like to know ho u built the ledges on the walls cuz ive been wanting to build one of my own

[TheDnbspecial]

@richieestrada24 simple carv some styrofoam boards to the shape u like or add several 2 1 piece to get a thicker 1 then make a hole in the wall so that the piece will tightly fit in there. Sometimes i used screws to temporallily fix them, then add plaster to the joints where the pieces meet then after drying coat the rest with plaster ... use a thin layer to avoid losing the textures. AJ

[905Reptilez]

great setup man!!! how many beardies you keepin in there?

[TheDnbspecial]

@905Reptilez 5

[Thereptileguy101]

Just like a stein enclosure

[notPaige]

Where do you get those decoations?

[TheDnbspecial]

@notPaige which ones ?

[TheNakerz5]

There is only one thing wrong with that tank, its not in my house haha

[TheDnbspecial]

@TheNakerz5 make 1 urself i'll soon do a step by step toturial how to ;)

[GoTHicGiRL184]

thats amazing :). do you have the photos posted somewhere? or how to make it? id love to be able to build something like this :) really good job :)

[TheDnbspecial]

@GoTHicGiRL184 Doing a how 2 video soon

[ashlynn703]

Great job!(:

[MrCipherz]

One of the best bearded dragon setups ive seen on youtube! really nice. btw whats the name of that song? thanks

[fueledbyfiorenza]

what did you use for the walls and steps/basking areas? have the hanging lights been an issue with your beardies? i know mine would probably lick it hahha

[megakillz1001]

dont you think thats alittle big for a baby bearded dragon

[free2theman]

damn ill take 5

[snake1616161]

How long did it take you and how much did it cost

[jamesozosborne]

probably one of the best beardy tanks ive seen your lizards muct love it

[123mrlenny123]

it just seems to lack colour ..........

it would be nice with some plants to brighten it up a bit :)

[dragonballz1254]

omg awsome

[Markjr813]

So awesome to make int more natural u should get other animals beardies live with in the wild

[beardiexpert]

how much did this cost you?

[IxtheKidxI]

Can you make a tutorial on how to make those tower looking things and how to get that size of a cage thanks

[TheDnbspecial]

@IxtheKidxI ill do a video on a even bigger 1 soon 2 come :)

[IxtheKidxI]

I'm jelious :)

[itwasaladream]

Wow and I thought my 70 gallon was massive lol They should be premiered on the show cribs for beardies good job that takes a lot of time and patients I'm sure there very happy.

[Kittenluvvers]

OMG!!!

I want a berdie for x-mas but this!... this is amazing!!!

[B3NN3TT999]

ive got a beardie, im thinking about getting another do they fight together and what do you recommend?

[airsoftfreaks1000]

i think you don't need that big of a cage but just enough for the bearded dragons to move around in

[Mantisboy14]

You don't need it nearly that big imagine the money

[Mantisboy14]

You don't need it nearly that big

[tom199219]

First of all, this looks amazing. A little question though: Does the UV right really reach the bearded dragons when they're on the ground? Cheers

[dragorn2432]

thats the most spoiled dragon on earth haha

[TheDnbspecial]

@dragorn2432 i agree :D

[SchwarzwindSin]

Improvement? None needed. Your bearded dragons are living in paradise. =)

[222bunnies]

that is awsum dude u r creative

[MrKnattyboy]

great job love it. How about some hid bulbs to get better uvb penetration may be some metal halide or mercury vapour bulbs

[ADeAmicis23]

how many bearded dragons do you have



[TheDnbspecial]

@ADeAmicis23 5

[xhenajeva]

Dude! this is to take care of your animals! Great

[MrChubbymeat]

did u say comment for improvment ? improvment ? are u serious thats freaking amazing!

[redTalonsss]

Wow. That's phenomenal.

[ajh2558]

Amazing!!

[Nightster1482]

Is it safe to have the lamps in the open like that? I would be scared my dragon would try to jump to it and burn its self.

[InterestingLizard]

Your bearded dragon is very lucky!

[apauln]

i love how there is a lot going on in there...

[ognimoddd]

holy shit that is bearded dragon paradise

[miguelintheclub]

Jesus Crist i wish i had a huge one like that .

[TheReptileking011]

shit the bed.....twice! thats the most dedication ive ever seen towards a beardie how long did that take you?and bravo dude u must love your pet like i love my wife haha (hope you dont sleep with it tho because that would be a bit too far)

[TheDnbspecial]

@TheReptileking011 took approx a month but to get the material ...ages ... and ty

[Luttibelle]

Oh, my GOODNESS!!! It's GORGEOUS!!!

[MegaRandomkid15]

Ohhhhhhhh damm

[slakker01]

bravo dude, that is the most awesome tank i have ever seen

[TheWeldingWizard]

were did you get your wood pieces????

[TheDnbspecial]

@TheWeldingWizard Hard ware store

[TheDnbspecial]

@TheWeldingWizard Local pet store normally 4 rabbits ...

[directearnings]

I have done something like this on a smaller scale.. I Just finished the polystyrene layering. Grouting is next. What color and kind of paints did you use for the rock walls???

[TheDnbspecial]

@directearnings a light yellow and then a colour that is slightly darker 2 do shadows... use a paint that is water based. Best is 2 use a spraying pistol to apply the colour.

[hannahlollylops]

lol, should've put this in one comment. but whilst this is a truly impressive and lovely tank and attempt at a 'natural' habitat, the aussie desert is actually sand, grass, and wood. quite a bit of grass even.

[hannahlollylops]

@greenizDAnublaque you would be best to get an arcadia 12% d3 fluorescent tube for UVB/UVA. a lamp that emits lots of heat and a holder for that. that's pretty much it for a standard set up :) hope i'm not too late in answering.

[hannahlollylops]

@tallasshaq the compact uvb bulbs practically do nothing. you really need to get the tube light.

[edjorthebeast]

Damn! that's a pretty sick tank

[middlemanclayton1]

LOL thought 570 gallons was a typo!

[famousrr]

How much did this cost? Would you make something like this to sell?

[TheDnbspecial]

@famousrr it costs approx 400$ depends where u buy the material ..and yes i'd make 1 2 sell unfortunally u can't really ship it anywhere ;) AJ

[SmilesHK]

@TheDnbspecial really really nice job, but i hope you know the UVB bulbs are only effective within 12 inches, probably shoulda mounted them a bit lower.

[famousrr]

IMO, this is the nicest setup I have ever seen!! Very good job. Once I buy my new house, I will need to contact you for some help on making one. Badass job!

[lowew79]

where uh, is the bearded dragon? lol

[sunjacker9000]

that tank IS BEAST MAN

[beardiesrule1999]

sick must be a pain to clean though ;)

[TheJestersDoor]

I love it, the only question I have is, why do you have only a few dragons?

[FIresideDeadly]

so you use stryofoam, then grout it? do you add non toxic paint and water to the grout then seal it with a non toxic varnish after? im going to make something like this but i dont have all the details for what you use to colour the grout. please respond!

[nickeftink]

Cool but probably a letdown because they generally just like to chill and lay around

[masonrsterlingskates]

you should sgive him a littel more pants to put some fresh air in it tho

[masonrsterlingskates]

nice set up man really.

[TitaniumRobot129]

can you make this stuff with excavator clay substrate?

[MiSsEmOgUrLxOx]

that must of cost a fortune!!! :/

[animalover222333]

ill be getting a baby beardie sooon well at the end of the year so will i need lots of climbing stuff

[chambers104]

@animalover222333 you dont really need a lot in the cage,just a good place they can climb to bask.if you have a smaller tank it's important to not over crowd it =) also theres a book you can get at petco or im sure any other petstore that tells all about how to raise beardies. it's sure helped me out a lot,and the book only cost like 10 bucks,really a good deal.

[TaivornMcKenzie]

Wow! This set-up is so good, you've put effort into it, good to see :)

[Atrax1207]

I would love to see a vid with a beardie inside =)

[Atrax1207]

NIIICE!!! :D That's a great and huge enclosure!! Kudos points to you my man! ;)

[kollan]

Wow!!

[mrjammyblue]

awsome!



[coolweirdo91]

whats name of this song?

[MissH1231]

u must be rich :] that probaly cost a fortune

[celticsfanization]

How many beardies do you have or did you just spoil one?

[wazzupsli12]

that beardie is spoiled

[Ibanezshredder75]

Wow this is the best beardie setup I have ever seen,major props dude.

[MrKidcrazy95]

wow.

[colelovesknives]

o: yea you are good.. i couldn't do that if i needed to . -.- What do you think about the ones that have it already built in?

[urdad51]

das ist sehr sehr gile. gute idee

[jhallak47]

holly shit thats the best enclosure ive seen! howd u do that?

[urdad51]

thats going to be a pain in the ass to clean

[hatefirstlivelong]

any chance you could explain how you made it . is it just a matter of glueing the polystyrene together and then plastering over it ????

[ducttapereptiles]

how much did all that cost ps nice job

[KuchikiJ]

I'm getting a baby bearded dragon soon.. I wanna make something kinda like yours, now i think of it a ''desert'' theme.

but did you make this yourself? Or did you actually buy those stuff in the pet shop?

bceause i want on all sides (besides the front one) to have the beard to climb on to the other side etc.

[TheDnbspecial]

@KuchikiJ The tank is made all by myself. All you need is avaidable in the hardware store. Styrofoam plates/shields from 10mm thickness up to 30mm. Plaster to coat the whole structure. It's improtant to go over the plaster before it's entirely dry, by doing this you'll get a nice rocklike structure and the surface will be rough enough for the dragons to climb it. Just make sure ur not making to large piece 'climbable' to avoid the dragons to slip and fall from a large heights.Hope this helps. AJ

[KuchikiJ]

@TheDnbspecial Thanks for responding back, that sure will help me out :).

[KuchikiJ]

@TheDnbspecial Thanks for responding, sure helped me! but wait.. with all those stuff in ur tank how are you gonna clean it up? I mean like.... It is so many things o_o.

[TheDnbspecial]

@KuchikiJ It takes a lot of time but its worth it when the dragons come around 2 look what ur doing in their cage ;) or try 2 eat the sieve :D well anyway its kinda fun and i don't mind the cleaning cause of all that.

There's a lil trick 2 get the rocks clean and keep em that way, just put 1/2 inch thick layer of sand .... so it isn't directly on the rock when they poo ... Hope that helps ;) AJ

[tallasshaq]

@TheDnbspecial what types of lights did u use? can you use compact lights that are low watts from homedepot? How did you heat such a massive tank? also did you build the actual tank?

[TheDnbspecial]

@tallasshaq Read the discription pls all lights r listed. It takes approx 2 hours in the morning 2 heat up. No u can NOT use normal lights for the primary light because UVA/UVB is missin in those lamps. U can use the light for lightin up the tank and make it a lil brighter. 450W r required 2 heat up the tank but it varies by 150W depending on the sessons ... the tank is made by myself if u have any further question feel free 2 ask ... AJ

[tallasshaq]

@TheDnbspecial srry. but the question was can you use fluorescent compact lights from home depot in a beardie cage. its the small squiggly light.

[Mrkdog151]

Wow nice cage I'm going to be getting one like that for my bearded dragon

[fizzbinchocolate]

WOW!!! id give my toe for a cage like that

[ReptileNation]

Very nice set up for them, its really cool, how much time and cash did you spend into it? and how many dragons you got? Also, looks like your not going to be moving for a while :)

Any chance you could convert answers to american standards? doesnt matter too much tho :D

[sjw91234]

How much is in the USA i might wanna get it

[RokinFreakShow]

thats a class tank mate but how did you get the rocks on the wall, how much did t cost and how long did it take !!!!! ;D

P.S if you do anwser for the cost bear in mind i live in the UK

[TheDnbspecial]

@RokinFreakShow took approx 1 month and costs approx 300€ so something like approx 350quid 4 u :)

[mswizle]

your beardies cage is bigger thank my room



[ThePumpkinthecat]

Cool! :) did you buy that tank or build it?

[danycalifornia4everx]

really nice but the structure doesn't looks natural us to square :(

[The119manish]

awesome but u shouldent use sand as a substraight it can be very deadly to berdies

[shady1619]

i want a bearded dragon



[xxAnimalKingxx]

Now thats an awesome tank. you must realy love your beardie and i respect that alot and i think i speak for many when i say that.

[Dinox242]

i would live thery and how do make nd ccan u do that in a 40 or 20 gallon tank

[beyondorginal]

that tank is asome whats next a lizard lambergene

[reptiecod]

Mad enclouser it's awesome

[TheDnbspecial]

@reptiecod ty

[Geckodood]

Huge

Just like in Australia

But their sand is red

[TheDnbspecial]

@Geckodood loved to have the red sand unfortunally the prices r sick its bout €10 a kilo ... ;) but your right and it would look better :) AJ

[TheAlontaye]

570 dang

[203keemy]

How much that cost you

[TheDnbspecial]

@203keemy 300 bugs

[UKCallum1]

Makes my tank look amateur. Ive decided to use a similar idea to you. Would using polystyrene coated in plaster and painted(non toxic) be suitable. My tank is 100 gallon. I only want to add a few features in such as a shaded area and perhaps a few ledges attached to the sides.

[uhGenocide]

How did you build this? What materials/process etc..

[uhGenocide]

@PostApocalypticGames Go to your local pet shop, ask about, theirs no harm in asking, but if you need help on how to start send me a mail on here!

[BeardedDragonsInfo]

Nice, i am just building my own terrarium 170x120 and got some good ideas from your video!

[3trawick]

Sweet

[classclown96]

wow that's awesome but it would be cool to have like a river bed or somthing like that

[wagner03mustang]

what did u use to make ur rocks and plaster the walls like that? The tank looks great, def gave me some great ideas for mine
