Ah, It’s alright I’ll look around. Do you have any recommendations on what I could do about her sides? I’ve been told to keep giving her warm baths and massaging the spots gently.I really don't know. Is it a t5
Okay, we have plenty of honey so I can definitely use that for now. Do I put it on the spots directly?Repeated baths and rubbing will make it worse. You can try some silver sulfa cream from a pharmacy. Raw umpasteurized honey is good too but having both on hand and maybe alternating would be worth a try.
Okay, thank you so much. I will look for a new light tonight and start putting honey on her sides. I’ll most likely do an update in a few days. Sorry I’m asking so many questions but any advice on how I could get her to eat?Yes, directly on and make sure there are no loose insects in the tank since they will really attack that honey and can cause real damage to your beardie . If in doubt, use the silver cream.
The 24" is a 24 watt bulb -- you could go w/ a 36" T 5 I think those are 39 watt but not for sure --Also, how high of a wattage should I get for a 10.0 t5? I have a 125gal tank.
Okay, thanks again. I’ll most likely post an update at some point.No problem, that's O.K
And don't force her, just let her get appetite return on it's own. She's pretty chunky so it's O.K, plus she might be carrying eggs and may stop eating before laying.
YesOkay, I will look tonight to see if I can get a fixture and bulb asap. Would a reptizoo fixture be okay if I replace it with a reptisun bulb?

I just went to the pet store a little bit ago and got a zoo med light fixture with the reptisun 10.0 t5! I’ll be setting it up as soon as I get homeIf it's a t8 fixture you need a 10.0 tube. You wrote that it's a t8, 5.0. You want a t8 10.0 or better yet a t5 10.0
O.P's quote
"Hi! I’m currently in the process of setting up a new dome light for her tank so I will show that once its done, before that shes had a long uvb bulb (i think its a 5.0 T8) and she has a 150w basking bulb and ceramic bulb, but I can show her sides and belly."
Will do! Where should it be placed in the tank? The current one I have is next to her basking spot.O.K, now you've got that out of the way, good job ! Please post some pics when you have everything set up.![]()
