Do you buy the dubia roaches online or from the pet store?

Also...thanks for all the info! I love these forums. I've learned a lot.

OK, I looked online a bit on the dubia roaches. I could try that. The ones I've seen at Petco look very big so I wasn't sure if our dragon could eat them yet as they seemed bigger than the space between his eyes. Also, I'll have to check if Petsmart has them. They are considerably more...

We purchased our beardie, Gomez about 7 weeks ago. He wasn't a super tiny baby when we got him from Petsmart, but he was a baby. Currently, we feed him the following daily. In the morning: - fresh water - fresh cut up Mustard Greens, carrots and peppers - 10 mealworms - 10 crickets In the...

Ok great thanks. So his basking area would be pretty low. You think this is a better option than getting a hood on top? I have equal fears of ‘frying’ my dragon as well as not having them get enough uvb.

Ok I’m back. The Reptisun 10.0 T8 bulb arrived shattered. Since I’ve ordered it someone has told me that a 10.0 T5 would be better to use. So now I’m on the hunt for that cheap t5 fixture. I can not find it. I’m in the US. Anyone have a link for it? I see this one on amazon...

OK. My tank is a 75 gallon. It is 4 feet long by 21 in high, by 18 in deep. I decided on the 36in fixture and light. Does that seem right? I ordered this light fixture: American Fluorescent 36" White 1-Light 25 Watt T8 Plug-In Undercabinet Light Here's the link----...

I think I need a bit more help. We are getting a bearded dragon for my son for his birthday. He wants a baby. We already have a 75 gallon tank set up with everything except the lights and the thermometer. I’ve been researching non stop and am very overwhelmed. I thought getting the compact...
