Pvc 4x2x2 lighting help

[Longfellow777]

Was curious as to what other people with this size pvc enclosure use watt wise for basking and distance

The UVB needs to go inside the tank -- Reptisun 10.0 T5's 12-15 inches directly above basking decor - Arcadia 12% bulb same thing - Arcadia 14% bulbs 17-18 inches directly above basking decor
basking bulbs 150 watt and that is trial and error

4'x2'x4' PVC Panel Bearded Dragon Enclosure
my question is before the enclosure gets here im trying to figure out the lighting .. should i go with reptisun 36 or 48 inch hood and 34 to 46 inch T5 10.0 Bulb i have the basking all figured out just need to know what size uvb to get ? the enclosure will be plenty big enough for a cool side

Probably a 36" would do --- mine is a 2" long so I am using the 24" fixture which is about half the tank - I would only go w/ half the tank it gives the dragon more room w/ out UVB --

do i need to put the UVB light inside or leave it where it is just asking because of the mesh on top
