[@jackry1011]

Man, that's looking tremendous. We really enjoyed the vid and have been inspired to create a new background for our bearded dragon. Thanks!

[@coopsreptiles2588]

jackry1011 Thank you! Hope it goes well beardie should love it!

[@alligaytor4253]

Coop's Reptiles Would the UVB you used in this video work well for bearded dragons?

[@SwissFrogGuy]

Great build! Give me some great ideas my next projects!

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Awesome background and enclosure mate! Those RTF900HT’s are awesome tanks. Best ones reptile one make I reckon.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

Beaches Scaly Beasts Got it for $80. Stoked haha

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Score! Nice work!

[@ItCantRainAllTheTime1988]

Where do you find the plants you use just out in the wilderness? I’m obsessed with them especially the twigs that look like a dead tree. Looks awesome dude.

[@rossbull8296]

What a great video your persuading me to get some mountain dragons👍

[@taeviansworldofreptiles3828]

That was awesome! Lots of work but totallt worth it for such an amazing looking enclosure. Great vid

[@conqueror3866]

Loved it! Watched until the end!

Great video coop 😁 keep up the good work

[@ianparkinson7039]

Just discovered your channel love it very informative. I think I’m sold on the Boyd’s always loved em 👍

[@DOTTYTIME]

What live plants would you use...i loved the idea of the background,

[@nataliepeters8459]

The jump from 2:50-3:04 really messed me up can you explain how you got it to look like that? This is exactly the kind of barrier I want for my armadillo lizards.

[@SativaSaint420]

Awesome video. I’ve got a Pygmy Beardie because of this channel, his names Raptor and he’s 18 Months old

[@coopsreptiles2588]

Thats great good luck with the little one!

[@shmukhq4958]

Amazing setup champ with the wild sand and eucalyptus leaves and what not did you do any special sanitisation with them at all? Just wanted to say that tank is sort of a dream I love smaller breed dragons

[@PetsinaPawd]

I did a rock background too! But I used drylok..looks great!

[@carlysaviary]

this was so helpful!

[@aartlewis3791]

Should do something similar for one off your blueys😍

[@SativaSaint420]

Hey, I’m thinking of doing something similar for my Pygmy beardie but I don’t know what type of foam to get, could you please let me know a good brand from Bunnings to use? Cheers

[@shaygman1]

Great as always

[@finchy4205]

Hey coop i dont know if you remember but a while ago i asked you what is a good blue tongue substrate and you said eucy mulch and sugar cane mulch thats been working great but i wanted to change it up a bit do you have any other suggestions.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

OwenFinch hemp bedding, coconut beddings or coir peat perhaps. Eucy is my favourite though.

[@justinhites6229]

That's awesome what's the UV be called coupe

[@LeoSeysRawr]

Love your channel! Was wondering if I made a hide/ basking area to look like a stone with your method would it hurt my dragon somehow or no? Not sure what that foam is you use but just wanted to ask if you’ve done something similar

[@pobpitts]

Great vid. Could you tell me what spray foam you used ? Also what mortar you used ?. Thanks. I was planning to get some mountain dragons but we can't keep them in Victoria (even though their native to vico) next choice was jacky dragons but they seem incredibly hard to find, so I've decided to set up a angle heads tank.

[@aiden5187]

Looks amazing!what would your next reptile be?

[@coopsreptiles2588]

Gillens monitor or one of the pygmy spiny tail skink species

[@aiden5187]

@@coopsreptiles2588 cool would you make a video on it?and will you be breeding this season with the blueys. I sent you a message about your add on reptiles classified because if i dont get my spiny tailed monitor ill get a bluey.

[@coopsreptiles2588]

Yes of coarse and I should have some baby blueys hopefully. Best way to contact me is through my Facebook page @coopsreptileworld

Is there any Australian suppliers of Arcadia products

Hey awesome tank do you have any good breeders in Australia for tasmanian mountain dragons

[@coopsreptiles2588]

Thanks! Message my Facebook page and I may be able to help you out!

Will this work for any reptile? I have a beardie and I want to make a super nice enclosure for her (and future mate)

for sure!

When you were explaining the dimensions of the enclosure were you measuring in cm?

[@monksau980]

how do you now if they lay eggs

[@coopsreptiles2588]

you can see how big they are when gravid so after they lay there is no longer abdominal bulging

[@monksau980]

Coop's Reptiles ok 🦎

[@kayleighrandallrandall2573]

Where did you get the cage from?

[@coopsreptiles2588]

Actually got it second hand from someone I sold a reptile to! They had no use for it anymore. You can find good deals at online marketplaces

[@pureslams6213]

would this sized enclosure be good for bearded dragons??????

[@coopsreptiles2588]

Maybe a smaller species but for the common ones I would go larger!

RIP to the fly who got stuck in the foam

Is the spray foam safe under the heat lamp?

I haven't had issues with it

Where did you find that mini T8? googling has revealed nothing for me :( and those eggs must mean you have some dragons to sell me? :)

Cheers @@coopsreptiles2588 That was the first place I looked (australian site) , but its not listed on their website, the only 8w mini was a bird UVB. The .com site has it, A few shops OS looked to have it. I guess thats the only option?

ENVIROCOM no Arcadia doesn’t sell from their website In Australia only through the retail stores they supply. Message Arcadia reptile and bird Australia on Facebook and they will link you up with your closest supplier

Thanks coops! You may be interested to know i have just finished copying your setup with my 7 and 3 yr old sons, but with the 600w version of that enclosure. Only difference id like to make is have some kind of night light so they can watch it while the go off to sleep (finger's crossed)
