From what I know you should be using a 10.0 anyways. The 5.0 Reptisun is only 5% UVB, and the Beardies need 10% or the Acadia 12% if you can source it.

If you go to the ZooMed site you can download the chart for the reptisun 10.0 and 5 to see the difference in penatration.
The larger tanks tend to be taller making it more difficult to have the beardie close enough for the majority of time the light is on.
Remember the readings for these bulbs is equivalant to being in the shade. In their normal habitat they bask for extended periods of the day in full sunlight.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
