Hi! Well I heard that the zoomed reptisun 10uvb is the best, the strip bulb version, to span the length of your vivarium. The exo terra reptiglo 10uvb is good to! The strip bulbs are alot better than th compact versions, as the uvb in the latter degrade more quickly.

Your equipment seems fine! Its generally not reccommended to have a night light, but an overhead ceramic heat bulb, that just emmitts heat and no light, as the light, even red light, can disturb a beardies sleep

Hope I'v been of help! I'm getting my first baby beardie on wednesday, so nearly coming to the end of my research now... although I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions once I get the beardie home! :lol:
