have been trying to think of a way,has anyone else done this?I ant figure out how to put the heat and UVB bulds in each tub.

I agree, the lighting requirements for a beardie, along with such high and low temps make it nearly impossible to do a rack system with them as more UV lights need to be at least 8"+ away from them. And beardies do not do well with UTH, they need ambiant ait temps of 105, not just surface temps like other species that do well in rack systems. And with such high temps and lack of good air flow could mean over heating the beardie by not allowing th cool end to reach down to 70-75. This is just one of the downfalls of owning them.

You can do a rack system for beardies but not the conventional ones like for leos I have seen it done before. I believe Garik Demeyer has done this before if not for adults then for babies and juvies.
simple quick example

Yes Gariks got a picture of one up on his website

yeah i think garrick demeyer has them in some rack. You could put them in something like a rodent rack with the lights on top or have custom made cages stacked up on top of each other but you would neeed a space for the lights.
