Hi everyone, For the past 2-3 months Belle our female who is just about a year now has refused to eat and all she wants to do is hide in her cool end and sleep. From everything i have read she is likely in burmation - i have gave her green everyday but she never touches them - i also offer her...

We have a male and female together and they love eachothers company - our breeder told us that the female will only come in season during the spring months so we seperate them for a few months but they realy hate to be apart - she will wave away at him and he will be bobbing his head at her from...

Hi there, I just bought a new tank for one of my BD's and was wondering how i can find out the size of it in gallons? The measurements are 39" long 19.5 high and 18.5 wide. I have my young female in a 31? long 19.5 high 18.5 wide If anyone could let me know or how to convert these that would be...

yes that is the exact same fixture we are using - it says upto 160w.

Yes Tracie i think that is exactly it. I have never had this problem with my 100w bulbs. I am fine with the 100w and if i choose to use the 160w again i will be sure to get the higher rated wattage fixture ... the ones i use are 160w max so its right at its limit. Do you think im ok using the...

Hi and thanks everyone for your replies ... yes it is an actual mega ray - you can buy them in 2 local reptile stores here but I am in Canada. No the lights arnt moved at all - they are hanging on a stand and are on timers so they are never touched. I think it makes sence about the fixture...

Dont you need to have the receipt for the burnt out bulbs? My beardie hasnt moved at all today since i have the reg bulbs on him ... he usually is very active and hasnt even touched his salad and he normally has half the bowl gone by now! Do you think it is because it isnt as bright without...

yes i heard that somewhere bfore too .. it is hanging on a lamp stand straight up and down Right now i put a 75w and a 50w for heat but i dont have any UVB source at the moment will he be ok until tonight when i can get out and get another mega ray?

Hi there, I have had 3 Mega ray 160W bulbs all within about 5 months. Anyone know why this is happening? I cannot seem to get any answers from the store where i bought 2 of them and have yet to go back to where i bought this 3rd one only about 1 month ago! I have a 100W one in another tank...

There are 2 reptile stores here in Ontario that carry the Mega Rays 100w and 160w. One is called D&D exotics and the other is Jackies Critters and Things ... they are not chains - they are just privately owned reptile shops. I will take it back today and see what they say - im sure with the...

no they would not have been dropped ... they are in deep dome holders is that what you mean? Actually a few times it was removed from the stand and placed on the floor sideways in the holder when we cleaned out the viv and a couple times at night when we put on a ceramic heat emitter when we had...

We have them hanging on lamp stands so no they are not on an angle ... would being on an angle do damage and make them burn out?

I bought it here in Canada at my local reptile store ... like i said i did find the bill so im sure it wont be a problem ... does nayone know why this would happen?

I have a Mega Ray 160w that we have been using for only 3 months max possibly less and today it wouldnt turn on and has turned like a dark color inside like it burnt out. From everything i have been reading it says these lights can last1 year to 18 months! Anyone know what can cause it to burn...
