ok.. so im about to get a 75 gallon tank which is 4'2'2 (at least thats what the guys said) for my bearded dragon.
i was watching this videos at http://www.youtube.com about taking proper care of your dragons since im a beginner on this ):wink:

ok so this tank looks king of big so... this guys says that on one side u should use bulb of 100W to 150W day bulb to generate about 100 to 110 degrees right?
but he also says that on the "cool side"i should use a night bulb for 24 hours a day which should be from 75W to 100W( i have a 75W red bulb btw), and a heat pad which is also running 24 hours a day ........ BUT how is it possible to have a cool size if you have using almost the same W on the basking compared to the coll side?(dont forget! the heat pad is on the cool side also)
im asking this question because im about to get my tank and im gonna make a trade giving my tank and some money for the bigger one, and i dont wanna play with my dragons health experimenting for about a week with the temperature, so i would like to know the right places and W for my lights and heating devises
tnx guys!
