What is a faunalux? Please have a piece of basking decor directly under the uvb 12-15 inches- I have not heard of Arcadia 15% are you sure it's a 15 and not 12%?
Ok lets start w/ surface basking temps and how are you getting them? NO stick ons they are for ambient temps only - you want a digital probe thermometer 105-110 this will change at 6 months of age- next UVB this is critical NO coils please - they are a health hazard -- how is the dragon getting...
Ok the PowerSun is a good bulb but if it is on the screen the UVB is being blocked by 30% - I and others have always recommended getting a long tube fixture to back the UVB rays up - MVB's are great for heat not so much UVB-
for a 40+ gallon tank a 24" fixture is good...
Gaping is good- dragons are pretty hardy I don't think the grass will plug her up - as dragons get older they don't poop as often - can you go over your surface basking temps and the uvb your using please-- surface temps should be taken w/ a digital probe thermometer-
I recommend getting feeders on line they are cheaper- I also recommend dubia roaches better feeder and easier to keep I can post websites if you would like
Please ask questions you have so.i can help you- loose substrate I don't recommend especially for dragons under a year - some textured NON adhesive shelf liner- cut to the size of the tank
What is the brand of the white bulb? Is it a mercury vapor bulb? That would be a all in one uvb/ basking-- either way you need a long tube fixture- I will post 3 links for 3 different ones- your dragon will not thrive w/ out this - do not run the che at night unless your tank is dropping below 65
I need a pic of the uvb and the temp gauge is only giving ambient temps- dragons should not be able to see each other they will stress each other out- your 10 year old needs to help taking care of the dragon they are a complex animal and mom needs to be the main caretaker - uvb's need to have...
Welcome to beardie world --- how old is your son? First hes got stress marks which is normal for them when you first get them -hes going thru relocation stress and will start eating more and the stress marks will go away as he acclimates to his tank and surroundings but we need to make sure his...
Scratching and digging is characters of female being gravid but pretty young- incorrect uvb and basking temps is characters of this along w/ size of tank
