I would first like to say thanks to everyone for your future advice!
I am new to this site and have been reading tons of material :study: but would like you guys to scrutinize my setup!
First I have 2 sets of dragons... the first set are about 5months old ... Male is a Leather back/ female is a red/orange morph (I believe). They are in a Custom made tank I built myself. (3ft x 18in x 18in) the lighting which im about to change unless otherwise told is a 100w basking bulb that reaches 120 degrees and a COMPACT exoterra uvb that I have seen being ripped on here. (AS SOON AS I LEAVE WORK THAT WILL BE CHANGED) They have tiled flooring and lighting is inside the cage (Not close enough for them to reach or come in contact with) about 6-8 inches from their basking spot.
Second set are 2 sub adults (Male/Female) that are in another custom built cage. (4ft x 2ft x 2ft) the lighting in this cage consist of a Zilla Slimline Desert 50 UVB T8 Fluorescent Fixture thats center aligned inside the cage about 12inches from the floor. I also have 2 lamps inside the cage but only 1 is used for the basking area with a 150w basking bulb picked up from Petsmart they are about 15 inches away fromthe ground. They also have a tiled floor.
Please give me all the advice that you can I will change as you guys see fit. I have put a lot of time and effort into my beardies in a short amount of time and dont want to see it all going to waste because i did something wrong.
Thanks
Jason
