Bearded Dragon Housing?

Question

I want to get a pet bearded dragon, and I already have an aquarium I will turn into a vivarium/terrarium. I am only planning to have one adult bearded dragon in the enclosure. I have researched the size of the enclosure, and most sites say that the bare minimum has to be 55-60 gallons (208-227 L). I am not sure whether 52.36 US Gallons (198.22 Litres) will be enough. Please let me know if I have adequate space please :) 

I have a tank with the following measurments:

Length: 4 feet (1.2 metres)
Width: 1 foot 2 inches (36 centimetres)
Height: 1 foot 6 inches (47 centimetres)
Volume: 52.36 US gallons (198.22 Litres)

PS. I used a calculator at this website:

Since the general consensus around this website is a min of 30 gallon or 40 gallon breeder your tank is definitely big enough.
