If there is anything missing please tell me!!

the sand, UVB bulb and thermometers arent good enough but everything else seems good...you will want to replace the UVB with a Arcadia 12%, ReptiSUN 10.0 and you will want an infrared temp gun to accurately get basking temps and you will want tiles, non adhesive shelf liner, reptile carpet, paper towels or newspaper for substrate

also im not sure if you have it but you will want a good calcium supplement and a good multivitamin supplement as well

 

[Spike The Dragon]

Ok thanks

Is the tank size sutible for a baby beardie?

 

[beardielover17]

if im reading it correctly its suitable for a baby to adult sizes

 

[ladyknite]

yup, what she said.

you also don't need the heat mat

 

[beardielover17]

good catch gina...didnt notice the heat mat

 

[Spike The Dragon]

Cheers everybody

 

[beardielover17]

cheers!

 

[Spike The Dragon]

Also what is wrong with the uvb light?

 

[beardielover17]

the reptiGLO 10.0 is known to be associated with eye problems with the dragons in the tube and coil versions

 

[Spike The Dragon]

Is the 75w basking lamp good enough?

 

[beardielover17]

that wont be able to be determined until you get the thermometer/temp gun...it all depends on the enclosure, your house temps, the distance of the basking spot to the bulb etc etc

 

[Spike The Dragon]

Oh ok but they are cheap anyway

 

[beardielover17]

yep, you dont have to use "reptile heat bulbs" for heat, regular flood lights and incandescent bulbs work well too

 

[Spike The Dragon]

Right
Would i need any dercorations?

 

[beardielover17]

you dont NEED decorations but its nice to give your dragon some things to climb around...you just need a basking spot really

 

[ladyknite]

you'll want something to climb on, and bask on. Other than that, plants and decor just get pooped on and in the way, especially for babies.

 

[Spike The Dragon]

Ok so a rock and a branch

 

[Spike The Dragon]

How ofern do you clean the cage?

 

[beardielover17]

they should be cleaned as soon as there is poo (spot cleaning) and then fully clean every week or so..atleast thats what i do
