NO! they need a nice tall place where they can climb preferebly a custom cage or one of those screen cages you can buy. You could house them in a 50 gallon and they should be happy in that i guess but i dont reccomend an aquarim for these guys. i would provide more than one hide. Read up on some care sheets and you should find some helpful info :D good luck

well yes she is shedding and noo not usually. they are not people freindly lizards they dont like being handled everyday. i would say once every other day for fifteen minutes or less. they are very bitey lizards and dont like handleing alot because most are wildcaught. hope this helps :D

I don’t think mine is a bitty lizard she just tells you when she doesn’t want to be handled by clawing an the vines to hang on or on you. I Have only seen here open here mouth when she eats. DO I need to trim here nails? I don’t know mabye she just tame the pet store owner said He would pay his employ $20 if she bit or whacked her with her tail while she was taking here out of the cage. Also do you know how to raise a super worm farm?

I had to clean out here water bowl today and my friend held her for me she seamed very calm outside the cage and then I held here and she jumped onto my chest and then my face and then jump off onto my stand and shorts then we put here away. Note her water bowl is about 2 qt. so we only change about every 2 to 3 days.

i dont reccomend those commercial lizard foods for these types of lizards being that they are not certified or are officially healthy for you reptile. i feed mine earthworms, crickets, super worms, butter worms, and silk worms. he also gets a pinkie every once and a while. its good to have variety even when they are young so they dont get bored. you can also put rosy red minnows in the water dish and they will eat your dragon’s waste. mystery snails are also good for cleaning dishes if you dont change them every day. put a whisper filter in the dish and change the water once a month or spot clean and clean the filter thingy ect. for however dirty it gets. hope this helps :D good luck :D
