This is my first beardie so please bare with me, do it to make my dragon happy, not me.
I'm tired of reading around and asking petshops for advice on my baby beardie because its just making me more unsure of how I should set up his home.That brings me here. To cut to the chase, I bought a 40 breeder to get him/her out of the temporary 10 gallon he's in with a coil bulb. Yes a coil bulb with no uvb(this is my first beardie, and petshop said its all I need. Anyways, I have the 40 breeder, now I need to know exactly what I should get for proper day heat, uvb and night heat. Ill be having AC on during the summer so I need to know what to get for night heat. I read somewhere that red bulbs mess up their eyes and/or bother them, is this true? All the nightlights I usually see are red, what do I buy?. Soo so far I've come to guessing what I need is a reptisun 10.0 tube, a day heat lamp, and a night heat lamp. Or a MVB and night time heatlamp. What's better? Please please give me brand names and specifics on what will be good enough for a 40 breeder. I also need the tube fixture (and a lid? if its not included with the tube bulbs fixture..) please, what do I buy???? :?: :study:
Thanks in advance, I know ill get the right advice here because there seems to be a lot of healthy dragon owners here. Ill post pictures when its all set, and you can see my beardie. For the record, he seems happy, loves to be handled(holds on to my hand instead of jumping bak in the tank), eats about 15 1/4to1/2inch crickets a day, and has a basking area of 100-110.
