Hello new to the forum and new to owning a bearded dragon. Meet Pearl. Looking forward to learning all I can about bearded dragons.

Welcome Pearl --- nice tank I do recommend getting a digital probe thermometer and if the screen on your tank is a fine mesh like a screen door please move the UVB inside the tank -- the screen blocks approx 30% of the UVB rays --- if the screen is a wide hole type it can stay on top but your basking decor piece needs to be 8-10 inches directly below --- if inside the tank please have the distance directly below 12-15 inches

I actually have 2 digital thermometers coming and the mesh is not a fine mesh. Thank you for the tips I really appreciate it.

Sounds good --- we want to keep her eating and the proper placement of the UVB and basking temps will keep her eating as long as there is nothing else going on --
