So I use a cremaric 150 watt bulb but she has not been getting a basking light source for months now and I think I should give her one. I’m not switching to basking bulbs because I went through so many the heat bulbs are the only ones that work. So I was wondering if there is any regular bulb I could put best to the heat bulb to act as basking light. Any ideas?

Get par38 halogen flood light bulbs from a home supply store. Possibly GE branded. They should come as a 2 pack. Best and most recommended for the price versus reptile bulbs.

Gonna depend. I personally use 38 watt in my custom tanks. My tanks are 4x2x2 and 8x2x2. The 8x2x2 is split, so it's two tanks in one. I also have my 38watt bulbs on dimmers as even they were too hot for my setups. My basking platforms are 12 inches from the bulbs.

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
