Hi . I'm a little unsure of how to have the lights arranged in my bearded dragon enclosure.
The enclosure is a wooden vivarium 48x16x16. I know, it's quite short and a little narrow, but its the only wooden vivarium that's 4ft long and affordable I can find where I live.
I getting an arcadia t5 12%, which recommends a distance of 12-15", and an exo terra basking bulb which says about 6" or so.
My plan is to cut out a shape from the lid at the back and add mesh, and place the arcadia on top (it'll have a reflector). And for the heating bulb, maybe at/near the front, on top of a piece of mesh too. And have a branch where the high point is near the basking spot, and the lower end is near the uvb. Does that sound ok or what would you recommend? Thanks!
