I had a juvenile for a month that we think was sick. The vet treated him for parasites but he was too far gone. I believe my setup is ok, as I've gotten tips from you guys already, but can you please look at my specs and tell me any changes I need to make? We are getting a new guy today and hope he's healthier bc I can't take another round of what we went through before.
*I have a 55 gallon tank that I have sectioned off since the beardie we get will probably be about 6" and the lady at petsmart said she thought the whole tank would be too large.
*Reptisun 10.0 T8 under screen
*Clear halogen 60 watt bulb for basking light
*Basking temp (after it's been warming for a few hours) gets up to about 101 in one specific spot. I have a temp gun and the temp 1" away on the rock is closer to 98.
*Cool side is 75.
*Humidity on the basking spot is about 40-45%
*Newspaper substrate
I plan on feeding him a mix of crickets, Phoenix worms, and dubia roaches. We have turnip greens and kale to keep in a dish. I will most him occasionally during the day (should it be done in or out of the tank?).
