Hello,

I recently added a new climbing piece of wood to my 120 gallon vivarium. I have a 10.0 T5 HO UVB inside the tank. It is about 13 inches above the basking spot and about 9 inches above the wood. When the dragon is on the wood she is about 7 - 8 inches from the UVB. Are these safe distances?

Thank you.

If she has an option of distance shes going to choose where is most comfortable for her

Agreed. Just provide a small gradient or slope and some shaded part in the tank and she will self regulate

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
