First this is by no means a bash on anyone but I get irritated when trying to do some research and Im seeing alot of the same information regurgitated by people who dont even understand the lighting themselves. I know this because I have questions about it myself, and cannot find it after...

What is the optimal UVB exposure reading that a bearded dragon should have? the picture displaying the readings doesnt tell me much if i dont know what number range the bearded dragon should have in the first place. Im still not sure how high I should be setting my 3ft T5 Arcadia 12% with...

Im still unsure about the distance needed if I were to use a T5 HO that has a built in reflector. I do have a solarmeter, but I want to have an idea of what kind of distances I need with and without reflectors in my T5 fixture before I go out and buy all of it.

Im constructing a 6x2x2 cage and I am not sure how far away they need to be with THESE particular bulbs... is 20" too close? I also read on a couple threads that if I get the T5 12% I should NOT get reflectors since I will need to place the thing about 3 feet from my beardies lol, so where can I...

thats exactly what I needed. thanks!

Its coming that time to start replacing bulbs and I hear that arcadia (now available in the US) is all the rave as being the best bulb... as a beardie owner I am on a mission to get them the best I can. which is better to get, T8 or T5? Im opting for T5 but since I have little experience when...

yes, it does help. thank you :)

Yes, he gets a half dropper full of Acidophiliz+ two hours after baytril, and an hour after the Albon (when he was getting it). Im very vigilant about giving the probiotics and I always have a spare bottle in the fridge. I noticed today while hes sleeping that hes breathing in more and the flem...

Well we were able to get the parasites under control thanks to a few doses of Albon, but now we are having to treat my guy fora respiratory infection. He is getting .12ml once daily of Baytril but unlike the albon, this isnt flavored and he showed immediate dislike for this new medication. I...

thank you all for your replies. I did months of research on his UVB source and am quite pleased with it - I have no desire to go to a UVB tube when his MVB works so well. if Mega Ray cannot get its bulbs working properly when it comes time to replace this bulb I will go to the reptisun or...

any advice on how to treat, or even treat for a RI? he doesnt like the basking temperature above 105 and usually wont bask. Im very hesitant to give him baytril right now since hes on albon, but after the next few days I can start that treatment aswell. Is Reptaid (not flukers) worth a shot...

my beardie is about 6 - 7 years old and is currently being treated with Albon for worms. Im doing the 3 day on and 3 day off method with fecal afterwards. he gets a probiotic an hour after the meds and is eating better. on the third day I noticed that one eye was swollen shut... I got a quetip...

Ive always been under the assumption that I should have a fairly equal amount of daylight and night time for my beardie, but recently I read on a few places that the UVB should only be available for around 4 - 6 hours out of the day. is this true, or recommended? I currently use a T-Rex 100watt...
