LED light

Hey everyone,
I want to put an LED light in the corner of my tank so it looks better. The LED light can change colors and it looks really nice. Will this hurt my bearded dragon's eyes?

As far as I know any colored lights hurt their eyes --- I would not recommend it but others on here can weigh in on that topic

An LED could put out some odd wavelengths and make things look distorted. If you do install it, I would make sure you have a good UVB light in place as well as a good bright basking bulb so that the LED is added to a good mix rather than dominant. Even then, I don't advise having the LED produce off white visible colors. It's best to stick as closely to daylight (or around 6500k) as possible.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
