Hi, I have a rescued eastern beardie that is only handfeeding; got hit by a car and his lower jaw was badly injured. He is feeding well now, although only from my hand, and it looks like national parks & wildlife are going to let me keep him as he is not feeding himself. I have him in a 4 ft aquarium, which is almost 2 ft high. I know the fluoro 10`s are only effective with within 30 cm; so i have tried to make his basking spot higher to get him closer to the UV. i cant really mount the fluoro lower, as the hooded light fitting sits on top of the tank. I would love some ideas for a heat/light setup for a 4 x 2 ft aquarium, as I want the best for this big fella. Also now he has settled in on getting him a female companion; would love a nice inland beardie but is it a good idea to keep these together? I know that inlands like it a bit warmer in their environment. What would be the youngest female I could put in with him; he is fully matured almost 22 inches long? Thanks so much guys; hope these aren`t silly questions just want the best for my beardie.
