Proper Lightning for 40 gallon baby bearded dragon

Hi, everyone.

I have a baby bearded dragon and have trouble sustaining a basking spot at and above 100+ degrees.

I just replaced the 100w basking bulb with a 150w Intense Basking Spot Exo-Terra bulb.

I also purchased a Reptisun
10.0 UVB lamp bulb, and a 15 watt Dessert 18” UVB tube bulb. Which should I use?

Thank you! I’m new to this, so still figuring out the correct temps and how to effectively and safely achieve them.

Attached is a picture of my little guys home.

Thanks I’m advance.

Hello,

I would use the Reptisun 10 tube bulb, in combination with the basking light you have.
Are you using a digital probe or a temp gun to measure the temperatures?
What type of basking platform are you using?

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
