New Enclosure Build, need peer reviews

[Dan D'Alessio]

Hi all, our almost 1 yo Beardie Spike got pin worms and was in a smaller 36"x12"x12" starter tank.
We had a Solar Glo basking light that stopped emitting UV rays!!! I figured out the issue after he kinda slowed down and his eating gradually reduced.

Took him to vet, he is currently on meds for pinworms.

We built him a new enclosure, and I'm hoping to get some thoughts on it from y'all.
Wondering if my temps are ok, and if there is anything wrong with the light setup. I added a T10 UVB fluorescent light to make sure he gets a boost of UV rays since he was without for so long.
Here are the enclosure specs and lighting config:

DIET:
super worms, crickets for protein. Mixed greens for salad (parsley leaves, mustard greens, bokchoy, arugula, butternut squash, endives, etc...)

Enclosure Dimensions: 48"w x 40"h x 16"dEnclosure

Temperatures:
Air temp, top 34c, air temp cool bottom 25c, basking spot 110f
Thermometer Type: IR temp gun, 2 probe thermometers (one on ceiling, one near bottom)

UVB Source:
Solar glo basking lamp 125w, NEPTONION T5 HO UVB Reptile Light Hood, 21W Reptile Terrarium Hood with UVB 10.0

UVB Placement:
Solar glo is about 18"-20" from basking spot (adjustable), UVB tube mounted on ceiling of enclosure

Basking Light:
Solar Glo 125w, UVA/UVB

Basking Schedule:
7am to 7pm

Substrate:
Reptile safe sand in bottom mixed with expanded coconut fibre bricks

Any help would be appreciated!

BTW He's on the mend now, doing way better.

It looks pretty good. Just make sure he can get within 14-15 inches of the uvb tube. Closer is ok also, as long as he has multiple places. He'll choose what's best for him.

Looks good.
How often are you replacing the Solar Glo.?

 

[Dan D'Alessio]

It's new so I would think maybe 6 months? I have some UV test cards to make sure the same problem doesn't happen again.

 

[SkittlesK]

That's about right.
I've also used UV cards & they are not that bad.
