The 60 cm model adds 15 cm along one axis, taking floor area from roughly 2,025 cm² to roughly 2,700 cm² and giving a longer run for a thermal gradient. Nothing about the lamp clearance changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan a bearded dragon live in a 60 x 45 x 30 cm terrarium?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot as an adult. Australian care guidance generally puts adult central bearded dragons in an enclosure considerably longer than 60 cm, and the 30 cm height makes safe UVB mounting difficult. It can work as a juvenile or grow-on enclosure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes the 60 cm model need two lamps?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt depends on the species, not the enclosure. A single basking lamp at one end is what creates the gradient; adding a second lamp at the cool end usually destroys it. UVB is separate and is sized to the species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eIs the screen top strong enough to hold a dome fixture?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe stainless steel screen is designed to carry a lamp fixture, but a heavy dome over a 60 cm span is better supported on a lamp stand. A stand also lets you fine-tune the mounting distance, which a screen-mounted dome cannot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I run a paludarium or water section in it?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base is waterproof and the front pane is extra-high, so a shallow water section is possible.
