Default I Need Urgent Bearded Dragon Help Please!

It seems everyone has been asking these lighting and heat questions but i'm still confused.

I have an adult bearded dragon in a 55 gallon tank with a 75 watt basking bulb (no uvb/uva) and this uvb/uva tube > Zilla | Products Desert Series Low Profile T5 Fixture but when hes in the tank he's lazy but when he's outside in the sun he's lively so i must be doing something wrong.

I just want to know which lights i need for him.
I've been reading all over the web that the mega ray lights are good for bearded dragons but i still don't know which ones to get exactly from reptileuv.com.

And after i get one of those mega ray lights is that all i need since they provide heat and uvb/uva rays?
If not which other lights do i need?

As for EB Bulbs, what are they?
Can they be screwed into any regular lamp light fixture that can be bought at petsmart and when you buy them off of reptileuv.com do they come with the external ballaster thing that is needed to run them?

I'm sorry for all the questions that have been probably answered many times but i'm just really stressed out and worried because i know my bearded dragon isn't getting what he needs.

A VERY BIG THANK YOU!
