Go to the link for AGAMA International and read what it has to say about diet and other things.

You might want to get an inexpensive infra-red thermometer to make sure you have the right temps. I have a PE-1 and it works great. You can purchase them here: http://www.deerfernfarms.com/Supplies.htm

Make sure your flourescent lights are the kind that provide UVB light. They use UVB to convert pre-vitamin D in their skin into active vitamin D3 which is then used in regulating the absorption and metabolic deposition of calcium. I have used the Arcadia from deerfernfarms and it's been great. Lasts longer than typical 4' tube. Just make sure you mount it so that it is close enough to be useful.
