The uvb should be as close as possible to the heat source, as your bd will spend more time under it's near source than anywhere, generally. The "coil" type uvb can cause eye issues. The "tube" style lights seem to be much better. The link below is just a reference. I would also suggest getting a probe style thermometer. The stick on ones measure the temp they are stuck to (in your case, glass). You can get a probe style one in your local pet shop. The aquatic ones work very well, and are usually around $12.

Sorry about my last post. Your thermometer appears to be a probe one. Just make sure the probe is placed at the hottest spot. I would say that would probably be on on the rock on the right side of the tank. Also, beardies don't usually drink standing water, and a water dish can increase humidity. You can remove the dish. It's not necessary.

Oh wow thats really nice!!!

In the meantime, you really should move that uvb over so it's right next to the heat source. If your little one is hanging out on that side, it's getting zero uvb.
