I have to agree about the undertank heater not being a good idea since they sense the heat from overhead & if the heater malfunctions, his belly could get burned before he realizes it is too hot.
Hopefully the Panacur won't affect his appetite. Would be a good idea to give a probiotic regardless though. It is best to have a fecal checked to make sure an antibiotic is actually needed.
Good that you will be keeping a close eye on the temps using the probe thermometer as the others are very inaccurate and can be 20 degrees off. It is a good idea to let them adjust where they want to bask so makng sure the distance to the UVB is in the suggested range, then your beardie will be more apt to enjoy basking right under the light most of the time while getting the needed UV penetration.
Hope he continues to improve for you and won't be hiding under his log a lot.
