All set for my little Tegu :]

Well hes not so little anymore (about 20" last i heard) But I've finally gotten his enclosure all set up! He has a basking rock with a temp reading of about 105, a cool side hovering in the mid to high 70's and a nice little tub to soak himself in :] Let me know what you all think!

P.s. When i received the tank it wasnt sealed and had some water damage. Also the electrical was fried and had burnt the top of the enclosure :/ I gutted it, sealed everything up with silicone caulk, did 4 coats of Drylock, rewired and repositioned the basking bulb and UVB bulbs, and filled it up!

What kind of Tegu are you getting?

Colombians stay smaller (but still big) and may do well in this cage long term... But Argentinian Tegus get much bigger and will outgrow that cage very quickly...

By the time mine was a year old he was 42" and 10 lbs... by 2 years old he was over 48" and closer to 15 lbs...

Arg Tegus also LOVE to burrow, so deep substrate is critical. Colombians burrow as well, though I'm not sure how much...

and of course, you've gotta post pics of the "lil" guy!

I ended up getting a Argentine B&W x Extreme Giant cross. Heres a link to his thread on Tegu Talk which has a bunch of pictures!
