    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hi everyone! I'm new to this board. I recently got into herps, and have just starting off with two Red-Eyed Tree Frogs very nicely. I am looking to buy a rankins dragon. I was wondering if anyone has a Rankins that could help me with a few things. I know that in general they are social reptiles, but would they be ok alone? or is it just best to get two? Also, i think i have read that a 65 gallon is good for two..but i cant find to much information on tank size other then that. Does anyone know what size would be appropriate for one? and for two?
If anyone can help...thank you so much!!
 
We keep two groups of 1.4 Rankin's Dragons. Ours are juvies (less than 6 monhts old), so they do fine with each group in a 40 gal tank.

You'll do best with just one, if you have no plans of breeding them. They are not necessarily social, but do well in a group situation.

Care is similar to P. vitticeps, but Rankin's seem to eat less greens.
