Hi there,

Your heat bulb is fine as long as it produces the temps you need. What are you measuring your temp with?

As far as your uvb bulb, I really dont know. It's not a common bulb over here so we really haven't tested it much if at all to see its output. Does the box or company website have any details on it?

Typically we would recommend the reptisun tubes or the Arcadia tubes. The Arcadia tubes are much more available over seas than they are in the us, they are great bulbs.

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.
