A good place to find the Powersun's in 160 watt is on ebay where these are about $30-40. Also check online at petmountain.com or lllreptile.com :)

I currently have two separate enclosures and am a fan of the Powersun MVB's. They are an excellent bulb and are wonderful to have uvb and heat all in one so there's no need for a tube light or any other fixture bulb. These bulbs also last a year before needing to be replaced and come with a year...

I also am located in southern CA and have two 40 gal tanks with MVB's and they work excellent. It keeps the room at a comfortable temp without overheating to me. During the day I've just been opening the window a bit and at night I use a ceramic heat emitter for them to keep up high enough temps...

She's called a yellow-phase! :D

Thanks so much everyone! It's very helpful and thank you for those links as well! I think I finally have it the right way around now and Mr. Peanut and Ms. Akon it is for now. And yes, I am aware of how big my sulcata will be getting, and will be accommodating for his/her growth. They do grow...

Oh boy! This is quite comical I must say. The transition of calling them a different gender now is mind boggling. It just doesn't feel right, haha. Ah well, it explains why Peanut has been so much more dominant of the two and the only one blackbearding. Thanks for the speedy reply! :D

So when I bought my two beardies I was told that my young one Peanut was a female and my other Akon was a male. However, I brought them into my reptile shop and they said that it was the opposite. I'm confused now and it seems that their names would not quite fit so well anymore. :? Well, here...

Definitely feed them with caution. It's important to not feed superworms until your bearded dragon is at least 16" in length because the size and the hard shells. My female just got through a traumatizing event of throwing up and trembling from not being able to properly digest those...

How are you measuring the temps? Are you using a digital with a probe or a temp gun? The basking spot should be at least over 100*F if measured properly. I'm watching my male do the same gaping you're talking about and it's a normal behavior to cool themselves since they cannot sweat. It...

Here's Peanut doing the sexy leg pose in our Christmas tree! She loved it in the tree and spent so much time hanging out there since the decoration lights kept her so warm. :D

Thanks for the baby food suggestions, that's a good idea, but I just worry that it'll go down the wrong pipe and she'll choke. :( I'm off to buy her phoenix worms today since we'll be home by the end of the weekend and I'll be able to get her back on her cricket diet. Right now her appetite...

Thank you so much! I gave her another bath and she drank a lot of water on her own in it just a couple hours ago so now I don't feel too worried about her being dehydrated. I was so proud of her, and it also seemed to perk her up a bit. She's not lethargic now and she's holding her body up with...

I have her in a 40 gal breeder with a Powersun MVB, and the temps are correct being measured with a digital probe. Her basking area is right between 103-105*F. She's almost 6 months old and about 13" long. She's on a paper towel substrate and has been for a long while now. I normally use...

Peanut is so sick, please someone help me and help fast! I'm worried she's going to die on me. I fed her small superworms last night and I'm not sure if she overate or what the problem is. She's been vomitting and now she looks as though she's still trying to vomit and she's trembling and...

One of my beardies does the same thing and I know how annoying it can get. My male will hold it until I take him out and then decides to go on the carpet most of the time, if not the bath which he'll always go in. Yesterday I had him out on my bed and I left him alone for about a minute and came...

I just had to share some new cute and funny pictures of my babies, Akon and Peanut! It's been a while since I've posted any and thought you guys may enjoy them as much as I do. :D Akon hiding and curled up trying to sleep on the ground shelf. Akon trying to find a way down from the bed...

I've been using a Powersun MVB for a few months now, and have only great things to say about it. It saved me from my female's eating strike and puts out just the right temps. The only negative is that it will produce too much heat normally if it's in anything smaller than a 40 gallon. I find it...

That's odd. I have the same Powersun 100w MVB in a 40 gal and it's reaching at least 110*F. Are you checking your temps with a digital thermometer with a probe end directly on the basking spot?

Yes! I really hope so too! I just put Peanut in her feeding tank with some new crickets and she went nutty for them. She ate 20+ crickets in under a minute or two time. :D I'm sooo happy!!! She's currently eating a second round at the moment with my boyfriend watching her. She's eating them...
