Were looking to building a new vivarium soon(6ft) for a bearded dragon, does anyone know where we could things the things we will need such as:
  • glass runners etc etc....
How would we have to set up the heating etc in a tank that size??

Thanks!

Oh, well you should have asked where you can buy long uv tubes rather than asking where to buy glass runners then.. :whistling2:

Not sure if this is what you were after but..

I think 48" is the largest UV tube size, I don't think you'll really need a 5ft one, maybe consider upgrading to a megaray bulb.

i would use silicone to stick the runners down, i also get mine from ebay as they are the cheapest i can find. i use 6mm toughened glass as well its just alot safer. and for the heating i use a 100 watt ceramic bulb at one end and a 48 inch uv tube in the middle. my beardie viv is just under 6ft i've put a picture in so u can see.
