KarrieRee":2geey2tw said:Your dragon needs calcium- he has not been able to absorb/ synethsize the calcium w/ the coil--- they are inadequate- I hate to tell you to get a 20" fixture and the T 8 bulb because the better bulb is the T but they only come in 24" fixtures
KarrieRee":wyr88puq said:Yes get the 17 watt --- what fixture did you get?
KarrieRee":2k1xkaap said:Yes and yes to your questions --- order the bulb its a T 5 and that is a good strong bulb
now if its warm enough where you are 65+ degrees set him on you directly in the sun for 15 minutes or longer and let him get direct sunlight -- this is going to help him -- do this every day till the UVB comes in when it does post back here and I will help you get it placed in your tank

KarrieRee":2jq0x2ze said:No they all come w/ the 5.0 just order the extra 10.0 bulb --- add to that order if you can -- the 5.0 is good for a back up the only thing is placement and distance for the two bulbs are different
