Hi ephiny, welcome to Reptilehaven! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] You know what, bearded dragons rule! I've had both Rankin's and Inland beardies over the years and both are great to work with, though I'm partial to the "big" (P. vitticeps) guys. Bry gave you some good info. there, as did others.
I've got my male "Goldburst" bearded dragon, Leo, in a tank that's 44 inches long by 18 inches wide. He's just about a year old, a little over 18 inches long, and I wouldn't consider putting him in anything too much smaller. I recommend you purchase as big an enclosure as you can afford. If you have a young beardy obviously it won't need so big of a space, but they grow pretty quick, and you may need to obtain another, larger tank in less than a year, if you start out small.
I got Leo at the Sacramento herp show last year, as a baby, for $30.00 (from Outback Reptiles). Shows are one way to get some of the neat color morphs relatively inexpensively.
