New Beardie Owner: Quick Lighting Equipt Q

[Broly]

The size of the tank has been stated quite a few times, it is 30x18”. 15” high.

His tank is 30inch and the uvb tube is 18inch, I did say to get a 24inch bulb

Ok cuz you said wide not length--- I would get a 24" but thats only gonna leave 6' open --- Are you upgrading to a longer tank ? is this the size your upgrading too? The T 5 would need to be strapped to the top of that tank for distance of 12-15 inches --

Have you read the thread from the beginning? Again, I’ve said a few times that this tank is soon to be upgraded to a larger size, for which I will also provide a longer UVB (which is a T8). Width to me is the widest length of the vivarium, depth would be how far it goes back and height would be, well.. the height. I have a larger viv available but I’m waiting for a day that’s convenient to collect and fit the fixtures etc. My beardie is 4 months so currently I’d say he is not in desperate need of a bigger vivarium providing his temperatures and UVB range is correct. But before the end of the month we should have the bigger one

Your beardie will be fine in that tank until about 12 month old
