Hi, I plan on getting a bearded dragon soon and I had some enclosure and light questions. I currently have a 48 x 18 x 18 enclosure, and 2 deep dish lights and one dual deep dish light. I was planning on having 2 UVA/heat bulbs in the the dual light for basking, and using the 2 separate deep dish lights for UVB. Does this sound ok? I currently have set up the dual light with one UVA and one UVB but it only reaches 70 degrees instead of the recommended high 90’s to 110. The cool side is 60’s but with more lights I thought it would warm up. Does this sound good, or do you have any suggestions?

Ok, thank you! I was wondering about the 24” fixture because I saw that it can as just the light/tube thing, but how do you mount it on the cage? Do they have a fixture sold separately? I also have the Reptisun 10.0 UVB light bulb. For the UVA, I have the Repti Basking Spot Lamp 75watts. I also have another UVA bulb but have no idea what type it is. I also do have a heat gun but have been using stick ons, so thanks for the info!

Thanks! The Reptisun 10.0 is a bulb. I found a good Reptisun T5 on Amazon. How would you mount it inside the enclosure?
