Hi everyone. I am a new juvenile bearded dragon owner. My dragon recently had a vet visit and I was told he has the beginnings of a calcium deficiency. One of the recommendations was to change his lighting. He previously only had a 75 watt baskong bulb. So, I upgraded his tank.
For his new set up I used the picture on this site to him with set up. I purchased a 18 in Reptisun 10.0 T8 UVB light (I mounted it inside the tank on the back wall). He also has a 100w zedmed basking bulb set up above the tank (w/o a mesh top). The T8 UVB is 6.8 inches from his basking spot. I want to make sure this is an appropriate set up because I have noticed him flaring up (which he's never done before). Any advice?
