I'm planning on purchasing a juvenile bearded dragon soon and needed help with lighting. I have purchased a 40 gallon kit http://www.petsmart.com/sale/reptile/national-geographicandtrade-reptile-desert-kit-27781.html?cgid=S500000
36L x 16W x 18H
I would like to purchase a new uvb light and basking light to use because the uvb light doesn't cover much of the tank, and even right under the basking bulb it's only about 90 degrees Fahrenheit. I would like to purchase one of the uvb lights and fixtures that go across the top of the tank along with a basking lamp but don't know where to start. I have heard good things about reptisun, but I know different models need to be different lengths away from the dragons and don't know witch one to get, or what wattage, or if I should get the hood cover they sell or mount it underneath the screen. Also not sure about what basking bulb I should get, wattage, and placement of it. I would really like to get everything set up with correctly with the right temps before I get my dragon. Any advice?
