My viv is 12W X 30L X 12H and I have been using a Zoo Med Repti Sun 26 watt 5.0 bulb. Is this enough UVB or should I go with the 10.0 bulb? My dragon is very young (about 4 1/2 inches long) and I do about 14 hours on per day.  Thanks! Grin

you can even try an MVB bulb as long as your dragon is far enough from it nd the best ones of those are the t rex active uv and the megaray
