HELP!! Is my bearded dragon ok?

[Scorpio55]

Ever since I moved him from my grandmas room to my room he had not eaten his food or barely moved he only moves to go to the cold side of the tank and stays there unless I move him back to his basking spot I take him out but he doesn’t move anywhere he just lays there I’m not sure what to do, last night I also forgot he was out and accidently stepped on him but there was no reaction, his beard didn’t turn black or anything he just layed there like always it has only been 2 or 3 days since I moved him to my room but I’m not sure if that’s the reason why he’s acting like this or if it’s something else

Answer these questions
what are you using for a UVB brand and bulb coil or tube and where in the tank is it on top of screen or inside the tank ?????????
What are your basking temps and how are you taking them ???? NO stick ons they are inaccurate you need a digital probe
What size tank ?
How long did he eat last?
How old is the dragon?

He was doing just fine before I moved him, the tank is a 40 gallon tank the uvb light looks like a reptisun bulb Im not sure of the tempatures in the basking spot he has a limb he climes to get closer to the heat ive tried feeding him meal worms, vegetables, everything he usually eats but he don’t eat it he was perfect before I moved him happy and healthy He is about 1 year or older, and I uploaded pics of his tank

what are you using for a UVB brand and bulb coil or tube and where in the tank is it on top of screen or inside the tank ????????? I need these answered before we can go any further ---
What are your basking temps and how are you taking them ???? NO stick ons they are inaccurate you need a digital probe
these two thing I keep asking are the 2 MOST IMPORTANT THINGS IN THAT TANK --- we also need to see him ---- if you have stepped on him and hes not moving you could of broken something or he might have internal injuries -- its good hes not showing a black beard that means hes not in pain or distress --- but w/ him not eating now and not moving could be a number of things and we need to determine what the issue is so I need to rule out UVB and basking temps

The screen is at the top of the tank I’m not sure what brand the UVB bulb is I think it’s reptisun, he still moves but it’s usually only to get to the colder side of the tank, basking spot it between 85-110 during the day depending on if I have the air conditioner on

I only use a basking bulb for his basking spot

That is the issue --- you need to get rid of it --- here is some info for you on UVB's
Which UVB light should I use?
The best UVB light is a ReptiSun 10.0 fluorescent tube HO (Or Arcardia 12% in the UK). Compact or coil bulbs do not emit the proper amount of UVB light for a bearded dragon, and should not be used. Other brands, such as the Zilla Desert Series and ReptiGlo have been known to cause eye problems and other health issues with bearded dragons, and should be avoided. The reason that some UVB lights (Zilla, ReptiGlo, coils/compacts, ect.) are considered dangerous is because the wavelength of UVB that they emit is shorter and more intense than the wavelength of the "safe" lights (ReptiSun, Arcadia). UVB lights should be replaced every 6 months. The T5’s are a strong bulb and only need to be replaced once a year – the T 8 every 6 months--- where as the T 8 are not as strong—they need to be placed inside the tank the T 5 10.0 bulb approx 12-15 inches from basking spot – the T 8 approx 8-10 inches from basking spot—the cover needs to be off the bulb for full effect of the UVB rays-- it needs to be replaced ASAP --- right now the fixtures are hard to find --- I have been looking all over the internet and this is a good buy actually cuz your getting both the fixture and bulb and the Arcadia is a really good bulb

So Scorpio, you should upgrade to the Reptisun 10.0 t5 long tube. Other than that, your dragon's behavior can definitely be linked to it being moved since he was acting fine before. They see all new surroundings and this can cause a relocation stress which should be temporary.
