I'd use them inside the mesh, suspended. There will be ability to climb to about the 3-foot level at a couple of points in the enclosure. What do you think? OK, Less, More? THANKS!

One UVB light will be plenty, You want to create areas that have little to no UVB as well. If you have a dual T5 fixture, then you could put a 6500k bulb next to the UVB bulb to increase the brightness of the enclosure.

Thank you! I had not thought of that option for a 2-bulb fixture.

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
