### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    For bearded dragon
  

*by B***A on Reviewed in the United States on 21 August 2020*

Came today, undamaged, comes with a 5.0 bulb. I took it out and put in a 10.0(recommended for bearded dragons) and so far so good. I brought a 55 gallon tank off of fb market. Brought a screen to go on top. And brought this to go on top of that. Switching the bulb is simple. And it goes the whole length of the 55 gallon tank. I put it diagonally so he will get uvb in a couple of his favorite spots hiden away from the bulb. Thank you for the fast delivery
