oh my! 130 degrees? i thought this was about bearded dragons, not uromastyx lizards! the hot spot should be kept around 95 degrees, cool spot around 75. also, a 55 gallon is not wide enough for an adult beardie to comfortably turn around in-let alone to house 2 adults!!! (unless they were rankin's dragons) a 40 breeder aquarium would be much more sufficient-FOR ONE. other than that, your info was correct.

buying an iguana as a GIFT? as an employee at a pet store, i see first-hand why buying pets as gifts is WRONG. especially for a child who probably knows nothing about the proper care and doesn't really understand what to expect. green iguanas ARE cheap (we sell them for $15), and that's why so many people buy them... until they get 5 feet long and the owner gives it up. iguanas are NOT carnivorous, nor do they TYPICALLY have a temperament meant for a child to keep as a pet. DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE BUYING A REPTILE, PEOPLE!
