I'm using an infrared temp gun heard that was best. My issue is if I move the t5 fixture any closer to basking it blocks out most of the heat from basking bulb. So im thinking I should go with a mercury vapor bulb for basking. Just wanna make sure that won't be to much uvb first
Basking area at 110° f with 22" t5 ho 10.0 bulb and fixture. Highest spot from Uvb 8"in a 40 gallon breeder am I doing this right. Juvenile beardie. Should I put a mercury vapor bulb for basking so there's uvb in basking area as well?
