You're supposed to feed you're beardie 2-3 times per day with each feeding being about 10-15 minutes of however much he/she will eat. I usually also leave a veggie dish in there for her to eat in the morning.

Roaches are a good staple bug to offer. I'd pick up a bunch of black soldier fly larvae and some silkworms and silkworm chow as well. They make great supplemental feeders.

2740 lumens is nice and bright! As long as that's providing a wide area of proper temps it should work well. You'll want a basking area that is at least as big as your dragon to allow for even basking.

I have it in one of the medium clamp dome lights from lowes the dimmer is letting me adjust well its staying aroubd 109-112 my uvb will be changed out soon to a ReptiSun 10.0 I got another since I was in a pinch and couldn't pay $52 for a bulb at the pet store when they are on Amazon for $28 with prime so that's next on the list :)

Also a side note my diy rock is flaking off in spots would I be ok to do a touch up with grout and just block that area off and him stay in while it drys?

I'd bring the temps down a few degrees to maybe 105 in the basking area. As far as the grout goes, I'm not sure if that gives off harmful fumes as I haven't worked with it. Depending on how long it takes to dry you may want to just bring him out of the tank for a while. If the rock is removable it may be best to take it out for repair.

The rock is pretty much in there I can bring him out but he would only have the basking light for 8 hours till dryed ok I'll bring down to 105 most of what I seen on here was 110

dont worry too much about not having him under those lights all day long... issues arise from constant low temps and lack of UV, pull him out for a while and get a fan blowing over vents to draw out the fumes quicker.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
