It is 120 gallonwhat size tank do you have?
Thank you so much, i will mount it inside.it will be fine. 1/2 - 2/3 coverage is pretty standard. i have a 36" fixture (34" bulb), but that is because it is what came with the 120 gal enclosure i had custom built. 24" is pretty standard for 120 gal too.
depending on what type of top you have, you'll want it inside at 12-15 inches from basking decor, or on top (only if you have a wide hole type screen top) and then it would be 8-10 inches above the basking decor. I have a solid top so mine is mounted inside.
Its a T5.you're welcome. if there are any other questions you have, please don't hesitate to ask.
oh, and i should have also asked if your bulb is a T8, or a T5 (or 12%). the above info is for a T5. if you have a T8, it can't go on top no matter what and the distance for that is 6-8 inches above the basking decor. T8's are a weaker bulb.
I have one more question, is around 15 - 20 dubia roaches per day enough for a baby bearded dragon. Live insects are pretty expensive in stores and the sites i find dont ship to europe.you're welcome. if there are any other questions you have, please don't hesitate to ask.
