Hey,

Is a 1300mm long X 1300mm High X 500mm wide indoor enclosure suitable for a adult Eastern Water Dragon?
If not can I get a recommendation on correct sizing ? :)

Are m/f pairs of this species suitable to keep in a single enclosure?

Thanks!
 
I would go at least 600 deep. An adult pair would be ok in that but I personally believe they should be kept outside in a large enough area to have a proper pond, land are and climbing space. Having said that, it is not an option for everyone so go as large as you can, As far as them being housed together, they should be fine but if they are already adults and have not been together previously exercise caution introducing them as male and female doesn't always mean they will get on.
 
original dimensions, were for a pre-made I was thinking of purchasing. However I think I might build my own custom enclosure. Sadly outside is not an option ): right now they are two juveniles housed in a 6ft fish tank, its not ideal.
