My little dragon has been keeping one of his eyes closed lately and I think it might be the MVB I have. So, I was thinking of switching to the reptisun bulb. I want to get this 24" fixture, and need to know what size bulb. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Lights-of-America-24-Fluorescent-Blacklight-Fixture/16879944
I used to own a lot of fish tanks and getting the bulb size matched with the fixture can be a headache sometimes. Do I need to get a 24" one?

Is there a way I can test and see if his light is bothering him? Would replacing the MVB with a regular household bulb for a few days be OK? That way i can see if his eye opens up and he'll still get heat.

Hello :) If you get a 24 inch fixture then you have to get a 24 inch light. I personally use regular light bulbs and have never had a problem. Changing the MVB you have now with a regular light bulb shouldnt be a problem for a couple days.

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!
