Just wanted to say hi. I found you guys through a google search after a few people on another forum (for piranhas) got bearded dragons. I have always wanted one and seeing theres was the push i needed to get going.
I wanted too get two juvies and set them up in my 45gal aquarium (to be moved to a 75gal aquarium when they get bigger) But i am more leaning towards one because of cost of live food lol. I have a few things i am still trying to figure out like feedin schedule since im out of the house for 9 hours a day.... not sure how to swing that. My 45gal is also a taller tank about 20" tall and im not sure what size (watts) basking light to use and how far it should be away from there basking spot. I am going to be using an 18" 10.0 UVB light but again im not sure if i can have that sitting on the top of the tank or if i should be mounting it inside farther down. Any advice or suggestion would be muchly appreciated.
The site is great btw... i have spent the last few days on it looking at EVERYTHING!! lol
