Bulb wattages are largely irrelevant, but probably better to use less than more. You could heat an entire 55G tank with a 15 watt incandescent if set-up correctly (moving basking surface closer to the light) but agreed with BDlvr 55's are too narrow for an 18-24 inch lizard. Better to go with a bigger cage.
