Hey everybody!
I am a new beardie owner (Only 2 days) and VERY excited!
My beardie's name is Nova. I do not know the sex but I figured that name was a good name for either or lol
I did countless hours of research and think I have a an ideal enclosure, but I can't seem to get my basking temps to where they need to be. The highest I have gotten it is 91 degrees.
I have a 40 gallon tank (36"Lx18"Wx18"H), for my UVB light I use the reptisun 10.0 that is installed inside the tank now (not an updated picture) and my basking rock sits about 6-7 inches from my basking light.
For my basking light I use the 100 Watt Zoo Med power sun. Is there another light you would recommend to get my temps where they should be? The coldest my room Nova is in gets to about 72 degrees at night and 76 during the day so its not a very cold room.
Also bonus question! lol
Nova has only eaten about 5 crickets the 2 days I've had him/her. Why is that? Nova is still pretty young I figured his/her appetite would be more rampant!
