I'll look into it all. As for the light fixture the reptile store suggested I get this reptisun 10.0 26w since I lacked funds for an actual new lighting system. He said its a compact florescent tube. And better than the exo terra coil I originally had. And this was meant for a 40 gallon tank. He also suggested I get a hammock and place it close. So far so good. He has been much more active. So I guess its ok. His etsy Hammock comes in next week.
Yes I have 5 cats and 3 dogs. The cats are already locked up while the dogs are out. And vice versa.
*Fun Fact* the dogs and Ranger belong to my younger sister. She bought him for Black Friday years ago and after a few months stopped caring for him. He's my first lizard. And as for the dogs... She got a new dog everytime she moved out?? so I'm doing the best I can while taking care of my sisters want nots.
I'll save up and try to get him an actual florescent tube light but they are like $100... And that's just not in my budget at the moment. So I'll be taking him on field trips for extra UVB. But the guy at the reptile store assured me due to the size of the tank the bulb I've got is sufficient.
