Hey, I was just wondering if someone could tell me how many watts a basking bulb should be for a 20 gallon long tank?

Instead, go to your local home improvement store and find the halogen floodlight bulbs. These produce lots of heat, and last much longer. Livestock heat bulbs also work well, but be warned - these can get VERY hot.
What type of UVB are you using, out of curiosity?
