Answer 1

Yes you can put red clay bricks in the tank, does not matter which side but remember it may retain heat if on the hot side...so personally I would put it on the cool side. they will probably not eat the food that you have seen at drfostersmith, but if you buy that and try it you should cut it into smaller pieces. Better to buy a bag of mixed greens for your local grocery store-one WITHOUT iceburg lettuce as it has no nutrional value tear or cut the pieces up real small and put that in a small dish to introduce them to starting to eat this, also you need to  give the beardies the smallest crickets you can buy (live)-  and they will need those at least every other day, I would get 8 crickets each time you feed them. You will want to seperate them eventually, as one will most likely try to dominate the other and may try to hog the food and or/stress the other beardie out. Here is a link to a great beardie site with alot of info. you may want to check out, good luck!
