I am trying to get rid of coccidia and have read that steam cleaners will kill the coccidia. I was looking into getting one but there are so many online and heard that ppl have gotten the 40 dollar ones and it works good for killing it and easy for cleaning the cage. I just don't know which one i need that will be good enough I don't want to buy a cheap one that doesnt do enough. If any one knows what I need that would be great. Also I have a glass tank so idk if the steam would crack it? I also got some professional cleaner from bd.co and was wondering if I can use it on bulbs and fixtures as long as I let them dry good before plugging back in obviously. If someone can help it would be great! Thanks

I've used steamers on glass before, it doesn't crack. I do usually go a bit slow, make sure the glass is warm before applying full steam, just to be on the safe side.
There shouldn't be coccidia on the bulb, I don't believe its airborne.

Well when I tried to clean the cage with bleach last time around I touched the bulb and fixtures so I'm thinking I might have infected it

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.

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
