Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

If they are not drinking spray them with the water...Bearded Dragons soak it through their skin. Also, I recommend Repti-Cal Calcium Supplements and Vito Supplements. Also, I recommend you get a Repti-Sun 10.0 UVB light for their cage

I prefer Ceramic tile, Easy to clean and looks nice, No need to worry about impaction from accidently injesting the sand. The tile also retains the heat nicley, also keeps the nails short..

I missed the Repti-Cal sand on your first post.....though the idea of sand/no sand will always be debated, the Repti-sand is definitely not the best option. I use sifted play sand for my adults (you can buy bags at Home Depot and such for a couple dollars), and paper towel bedding for babies/juvies. If you prefer sand, the play sand is the safest option.

Any type of sand without rocks will be OK for dragons of that size... For hatchlings, I recommend sifted playsand though.
There should be no need for additional UVB lighting, since you already have a Power Sun. Your dragon is losing weight, because he is not eating and being kept warm. So he is hiding on the cool side of the cage for a reason. You may want to follow his lead. It could be stress, or seasonal changes.
"dusted with T-Rex ICB" - The one thing I'd question is the supplement you are using. This one is a smorgasbord of stuff that users have attributed difficulties to - we stick to RepCal (Calcium/D3 only)
If you search for T-Rex under some of the other bearded dragon forums, you can read their experiences from back in 2004.
How is the smaller dragon acting? Did Benny start acting weird just around the daylight savings-time change?

So RepCal (Calcium/D3only), but what about vitamins?
What is the benefit of sifted play sand? Do you guys buy it that way or sift it after you buy it??
BTW, if I am going to split them up what size tank is appropriate. I definately like some opinions please. I would also like some heating opinions on what ever tank you are recommending.
thanks so much. I am learning very fast thanks to this forum!

Okay, but what about the increase of D3 to dangerous levels over time. Do we really need D3?
