bearded Dragon heating???

I'm using the heat/UVB bulb in one and it's getting 103 degrees on the basking spot and it's 13 inches away. I need it to be around 6 inches but it will be too hot that close. Can I put a dimmer on it workout it affecting the uvb output?

Hey Michael,

Which MVB are you using? What wattage? What I would recommend doing is purchasing a UVB meter. Test is at various distances. If you are getting at least 12 microwatts per square centimeter, I wouldn't worry about it. You could also just add a UVB fluorescent strip bulb if you want to up the UVB output.

Hope this helps!

Your reply did help but unfortunately i didn't get the dragon i was going for. I just saw you replied to this and wanted to reply as a courtesy. Thanks for the help for the future though.
