Right now I have my 2 month beardie in a 10 Gallon tank. I am upgrading him in January, right now he is only 6 inches so I don't want to overwhelm him with space.
I have a 75watt basking bulb right now. The temperature gets to between 100-110. Although that's how hot the highest point on his tree is, he lays on the fake leaves and crawls closer to the lamp. Should I get 100w and move the leaves away? Is he okay being that close to the lamp?
I also have the compact reptisun uvb 10.0. I am only using this until we upgrade tanks. The dome I have isn't the right size. Does anyone else use that bulb? What bulb do you recommend?
Also, what are the best basking sites for a small tank. Right now he lays on the small tree, and his fake leaves (are those okay to have in there?)
What's the best thing for him on the cool side? I have a big log and don't like how chunky it is and it gives crickets lots of space to hide. Since I got him all he likes to do is bask so the only time I see him on the cool side is when he is tucked in his blanket sleeping. He stays in his blanket until the lights come on in the morning.
Should I have a water bowl in there? He never uses it.
Sorry for all the questions. Just want to make sure I do everything right.
