    2x4x4 ft beardie tank no idea what kind of lights to get.

    I bought a 26 WAT uvb bulb “exo terra”. I don’t know if that’s good or not. I have no idea what kind of heating lamp to upgrade to. I think it just depends on the temperature but I am paranoid. Please help me I have looked all over the internet and cant clarify my questions.

    Basking Temp Question

    Hi all! I have a 2 mo BD, who is very healthy and gaining steady weight. When I first got him, the basking temp would be around 105-107°F, but it has dropped down to 95-97°F. I think the bulb died off a little bit within the last few weeks, or it is just a bit colder in my room. I am currently...

    Spot lamp not warm enough

    I recently got a young bearded dragon. He eats well, poops well, and seems generally healthy. But I have a major problem with the basking spot lamp. We have a "Zoo Med Repti Basking Spot lamp bulb 150 watt" yet in a 40 gallon tank, it only reaches 85 degrees Fahrenheit. I was wondering if there...

Along with the Arcadia we have a 100w basking bulb in a dome light above the tank as well as a 100W CHE. Even with both bulbs on, my digital probe thermometer is reading 81%...

It comes with a dual lamp fixture, with one side having a 10.0 compact fluorescent uvb, and the other...
