I need help

[Maldesto]

I need to know exactly what i should have in my tank..


I currently have my 7-8 month beardie in a 55 gallon tank. I have a 30 gallon repti carpet in there, with a 12x12 tile so 75% carpet 25% tile


I also have a large hide rock, and a little bridge.. also have a water bowl, no food bowl, as he dont eat veggies much and i just feed him crickets and meal worms by hand... I also need to know the lighting i need, i would need direct links to the lights from a website.. thanks.

Well, you should still offer salad even if he doesn't eat it

You need a basking light to get the temperature into the 100-105 degree range. The bulb shouldn't be one that puts off colored light eg. black, purple, red.

You also need a uvb bulb. The only one I highly recommend is the reptisun 10.0 tube. Unless you don't have a pet store that sells these items and you'd rather buy online, i can give you the links if you would rather order instead of go pick up.

Ps. The basking bulb doesn't need to be a fancy reptile one that costs 50$. A 4$ halogen bulb from walmart works just fine for me and gets the temperatures right where i need them.
