AND the bulbs that will hurt your beardie non heat wise at a 12 in distance are for sale on the site are only for zoos.

The compact bulbs are the small twisty fluorescents. Do not buy those.

The SB series I believe are the safe ones. They do need to be more than 12" away though because they just get hot.

Yes, solid substrates are good. Newspaper, carpet (make sure it doesn't have loops that the beardie could get his nails caught in), tile, etc. I'm going to use tile, because when one is soiled, I can simply take it out, wash it, and put it back.

Best of luck
