I hate you lol, power goes out for a few days so coudn't go on craigs to find a big fish tank....
Well you should defiantly be able to cover everything you'll need with $400
Grab 2 hiding spots, UV Fixture 10.0, basking lamp, water bowl, food bowl, repti-carpet/news paper/butcher paper/tiles/etc as a substrate, at the upcoming reptile show in west chester you can pick up nice branches for your beardie.
I recommend you to wait for the reptile expo and get everything thier for cheap...you can even get the company "glass cages" to bring you the glass tops..
you can even get a bearded dragon morph for cheap.
Seems to be a good video for a young bearded dragon....when your dragon gets big upgrade the size of the hides if anything

You'll need a screen top, but you can also get these from Glasscages. You should be able to get a 48x18" screen top at a reptile show or possibly from a local pet store, though some don't stock them that large. As was already mentioned, you will need a UV light as well as a basking bulb. You can kill both birds with one stone if you go with a mercury vapor bulb.
<3 i agree lol uh huh yep to it all
you heart ur wifey toOn the killing two birds with one stone thing... you need to make sure that is DOES actually produce UVB as well as heat. not all mercury vapor bulbs do..... in fact most bulbs don't, the ones that do will specify that they do and will cost a bit more.
Also want to discuss the ignorant statement about sand but I have to get to work so I will do it later.
