[QUOTE="KarrieRee, post: 2031036, member: 97951"] Please get the UVB in the tank directly above the basking decor piece 12-15 inches - screens block 30% of the rays and the tank is too tall for it to be on top -- surface basking temps should be 95-100 for a dragon over 6 months -- you want middle of the tank 90's and cool side 80ish - the surface basking temps need to be taken w/ a digital probe thermometer I recommend two of them - one for the cool side of the tank - analogs are for ambient temps only - please get a digital probe hygrometer placed on the back center wall of the tank - I am not savvy on the wi fi device - your surface basking temps will determine the wattage of the bulb you will need -- glass tanks are hard to keep warm - you can get a CHE for winter time - placed on the top screen middle of the tank - you want ambient temps at night 65-75 - IR guns are good but can be off w/ certain types of decor materials - basking bulbs will tell you if they are dimmable -- you want one that is a clear solid bright white bulb NO off white --colored or yellowish or daytime bulbs -- [/QUOTE]
