No lights at all at night. The long light is simply replicating the sun, don't need sun at night. It disturbs their sleep and if they don't get enough sleep, well, you try going without sleep. No lights at all at night.

The only thing recommended for heat and if it is needed is a Ceramic Heat Emitter, it produces no light, and provides small amounts of heat that won't hurt the beardie, but you only need this if temps go below 65F. If they don't go that low then just shut the lights off and leave the beardie be.

Mine sleeps every night with no lights and no ceramic heat emitter, and her cage stays at about 70-75F.

Nope, no lights at night are needed unless the temps are below 65º. If they are, use a CHE (ceramic heat emitter).

Is there any writing on the bulb? Hopefully it should say like 'ReptiSun t5' or 'ReptiSun t8'

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
