I don't suggest using and heat mat of any kind, Use a tight beam basking bulb.
I won't get into it here, but i'm an avid anti sand person. I use wheat bran for my substrate, looks good and VERY easy to clean. the only down side is you can not keep a water dish in there as the substrate can mold if kept wet. I find my beardies get enough water from their food (salads, pellets, and insects) and also baths, no other water source is necessary.
For the vitamins i suggest rep-cal- calcium w/out phos. and herptivitamin at a 6:1 ratio along with a 5% UVB bulb.
Stay away from all lettaces dark greens like colard, mustard, turnip and others are better. Spinach is also a no no.
