Question About Powersun and Light Fixture

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hello, I have a 40 gallon breeder cage with a t5 reptisun uvb light, and I wanted to add to the uv light by replacing the regular heat bulb with this 100 watt power sun bulb. My beardy hasn’t been interested in salads and most bugs and so I wanted to boost his appetite with this new bulb. My question is, the only spare fixtures I have is the ZooMed dual lamp fixture (deep dome), and a regular old silver fixture. Are either one of these options okay?

Edit: I just read on the Powersun box that the bulb is compatible with the mini dual light fixture, however, I already have a CHI, so could both of them be in there together? Or is that too hot

As long as the fixture is rated for the wattage of bulb you are using in it, it should be fine.

I'm not sure I'd run a CHE and powersun together in the same fixture though. Although the only thing that might happen is decreased life span of the bulb.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
