Heya, I am new to the community I got my first beardie on June 10 his name is lacutous (if there are any startrek nerds out there you'll get the name reference lol)
I'm still learning where to post things but I have an important question concerning UVB lighting I have been doing lots of research and have seen that compact lights are a no go ...he doesn't seem to have any issue but I am currently waiting for a linear 25 inch and a fixture I have a 40 gallon and I figured a t8 would do I couldn't find a t5 in a 24 inch anyhow I'm getting the reptisun 10.00 t8 and I can't find any info on the appropriate distance any input would be fantastic thank yous and I look forward to meeting your beardies

Hi there, do you have pics of your new baby + his set up ? Here's how to post :

You can have the Reptisun 10.0 at about 8-10" from the basking spot for decent uvb exposure. If in doubt you can hang it inside the tank for a more unobstructed +full exposure.

The fixture I'm getting it set up so it will be going inside
