Ok thanks! Your tank looks really nice! So this velcro looks really cool, it seems to hold up to the heat and UVB?I think it looks ok no black so that is good -- ok the 120 gallon is good for your UVB and the 14% bulb I would still put in the tank --- I had used the 14% in my Zen and had it strapped to the top of the screen in the middle of the tank - the pic I posted earlier is w/ the T 5 bulb now - I will post a pic of Blazes tank w/ the 14% bulb -- you can use this for hanging your fixture it works great I am using it now its like a Velcro strap cut into strips and wrap around your fixture -- use the bars running across the screen for your UVB -- GE 15 ft.

I think I will return the one that I ordered and get the shorter lamp.

They are both good bulbs the 14% is not recommended for tanks less than 24" tall it is up to you - you can use the 14% now and get the 24" fixture or swap both out- Pangaea is fast on shippingI think I will return the one that I ordered and get the shorter lamp.

I was just wondering what you think about handling a relatively new bearded dragon? I have spent a lot of time around him in the past week and feeding him with those feeding tweezers. I haven’t really tried to pick him up because I feel like he doesn’t want me to yet, but I’m just wondering how I go about starting this process ,since I guess at some point I probably should give him a bath and things like that. What would be your advice?They are both good bulbs the 14% is not recommended for tanks less than 24" tall it is up to you - you can use the 14% now and get the 24" fixture or swap both out- Pangaea is fast on shipping
Getting your hands in the tank so he's used to you being in the tank approach from side and pick him up supporting all his legs- start hand feeding him no more tweezers you want him hand tamed- put a piece of your clothing or fleece blanket w/ your smell on it placed in his hide he will get used to your smell- hand feeding him will get him to learn to trust you this is very importantI was just wondering what you think about handling a relatively new bearded dragon?

He will eat out of my hand, and he let me pet him today which is really exciting! I just got some silkworms in and wanted to make sure that the food the silkworms eat is safe for the dragon. I wanted to double check about the hornworms' food too? I got the hornworms from Rainbow Mealworms and the silkworms from Reptilian arts.Getting your hands in the tank so he's used to you being in the tank approach from side and pick him up supporting all his legs- start hand feeding him no more tweezers you want him hand tamed- put a piece of your clothing or fleece blanket w/ your smell on it placed in his hide he will get used to your smell- hand feeding him will get him to learn to trust you this is very important
