Hi there, I have bought my first beardie today along with the vivarium etc. The guy who own the shop told me I only need a UVB light (Arcadia T5 14%) and a 100w ceramic heater which will be apparently enough for basking spot, warm side and cool side if properly used with a ministat 600. Is this correct? Do I not need any other lamps for basking for my buddy? Will he be ok in this set up? I still need to buy all the decor tomorrow. Just wondering if the ceramic heater is enough for my buddy? From what I read online before buying the vivarium they need a basking lamp not a heater that is on pretty much 24 hrs a day... I feel like I got lied to by the shop owner although he seemed like he knew what he was talking about as the shop he owns is a reptile / aquatic shop.
