It should be good as long as you are able to keep your dragon at a safe distance so as not to sustain burns and he/she has a cool side to the setup as these bulbs get super hot! I use these bulbs with chameleons and tortoises. On a side note, if you can afford it, look into getting Arcadia bulbs. They are the best!

The lighting will most definitely provide enough light. You may want to look at the bigger models to fit a 90 gallon though. This one fits up to 20gal long aquariums

it depends on how tall the tank is and what wattage the bulbs you choose are. a hood will only amplify the lights. depending on the reptile (some require less ubv than others) and the size of the cage, a hood may even make it to strong.

My tank is 50g. It's ok for me. Your tank is almost double in size. In my opinion for medium high lighting, this light may not be sufficient.

Ahhh... I'm not sure since my aquarium is quite small (20 gallons), that's why it's worked well for me. I imagine for that size of aquarium you would require a lot of these LED light in order to fulfill your light needs for that size tank. But that also depends on the dimensions of your tank. If it's not that deep (24 inches in height or less), then these lights will do well. But I suggest you research other LED lights before buying this, and you get others opinions. Hope this helps.

It should be ok but you will need 2 of them. They don't put out a ton of light but with 2 you should be ok as they are dimmable. Or, buy just one and decide after you try it if you want another. I have an 80 gallon at work and have 3, once is only running blue and the other 2 are at 100 blue and 55 white. With a smaller tank you have to remember you have less LEDs too.

Well first, you should not house bearded dragons in the same enclosure, any web forum will tell you the same. Not trying to be rude, just saying. Bearded dragons do better with overhead heat, a basking light or ceramic heat bulbhooked to a thermostat. It is a little small for a 60 gallon tank. Also if for some reason you get this or a bigger size under tank heater, make sure you cover that area with some reptile carpet or else the glass will get too hot and possibly burn the lizards.

the 10.0 uvb reptisun bulb will reach up to 20 inches. The 5.0 will reach up to 12 inches so it depends on how deep your tank is as to which one you get. It is a very good bulb. I use the 10.0 on my bearded dragons. Their tank is 20 inches deep. Hope this helped. Good luck. :)

greetings, this lamp for marine aquariums REEF .. not for freshwater aquarium. Check and read carefully before making an unnecessary expense. If you want to buy is your decision: I do not know what the behavior of plants inside the aquarium with the lighting. I recommend and look ORBIT LED lamps .. Greetings. NelsonC

I believe any reptile spot lamp bulb would work. Do not exceed 100w on this fixture, it can cause over heating

I think it intended more for tree living reptiles, bearded dragons are desert dwellers, so no I don't think it would be good for a bearded dragon. A bigger tank might be better.

This bulb is perfect for all reptiles that require natural sunlight. You will need to get the right length bulb for your cage/tank, but it's a great product.

I don't think so. It would be dependent on what bulbs you have also. I think that a brighter tank looks better than a dim one.

Should work fine as long as it is a fresh water tank. It doesn't say in the details but it also needs a lid to your tank to keep and moisture off the light

I use a 40 watt bulb, and it casts a nice warm glow. I have to warn you that I bought one for myself and one sent to a friend. Both lamps were very poorly packaged and cheaply made. I sent mine back for a replacement, and even the replacement was a bit damaged. I kept it; it's a good enough lamp for the price, but know that you may have to re-thread the lampshade or iron out some dents. That said, I've had the lamp for a while and it has performed well and if I turn the dented side to the wall, it looks pretty nice too.

As long as the desk lamp is designed for the non-standard base this bulb uses and 40 watts will meed your needs, sure this will work.

Hi,"Bearded Dragons must have a UV bulb to keep them healthy. We highly recommend a Sunforce UV Mercury Vapor bulb or other brand mercury vapor bulb. Successful UV can be produced with a Zoo Med Reptisun 10.0 bulb as well but your dragon should be within 15 inches of the 10.0 bulb. All of these bulbs can be found in our lighting section of our reptile department. Don't forget that you must change your UV bulb every 6 months in order to maintain proper UVA/UVB."Check out our Care Sheet for Bearded Dragons or give us a call for more info: http://www.bigappleherp.com/site/content/Care_Sheet_Bearded_Dragon.htmlThank you!
