Bearded Dragon Lights?

Krista gave some good info but you can't necessarily go with 50W bulbs because she said they are strong enough to heat up the tank enough. I have a 40 gallon breeder and I need to use a 75W for night heat, a 100W day cycle and I have the UV strip. The bulbs themselves should run $5-20 for the incandescent and the UV can run up to $50 without the fixture. Other accessories you need would be a hide, substrate, 2 thermometers (baskin and cool side), humidity indicator, water dish (yes there are people who think they don't need one, but they do) and if you want to have bubbles in the water dish so the dragon is more attracted to the water and drinks more buy a small air pump for a fish tank and length of hose. Put the end of the hose in the water dish (maybe a small rock to hold it under the water and let crickets crawl out of the water so the don't drown) and you will get bubbles. You should be able to get everything that you need for under $300. Good luck.
