Hi, I’m new to owning bearded dragons or any reptile in general. I read that you need UVA and UVB and now I read that I only need a tube fluorescent light and a heat lamp?
I’ve re read so many forums and I’m just so confused as to how to light my tank.
I was going to buy a ”repti-sun 5.0 T5-Ho Uvb fluorescent lamp”
What else do I need besides that? Does it provide UVA also?
Do I only need a heat lamp now? And what kind of heat lamp do I even use?
I see some people with three or four lamps on their cages and then a tube inside and I don’t understand any of it
My dragon has a 100 watt flukers mercury bulb in it right now and I read that you need a full light fixture (tube) across the tank because the mercury bulb is only in the basking spot. I’m just using that because that’s what the people gave me when I bought her off of craigslist a month ago, she’s 7 years old in a 75gallon tank.
