    Distance from UVB

    In either case it's too far away. The Repti-Sun 10 is still producing some UVB at that distance but not enough for a Uro. He should be able to get within about 6 inches. Your options would be to either stack things in his cage so he's able to climb high (I'm not sure if a Uro would utilize them...

    Distance from UVB

    It depends on the bulb. Mercury Vapor bulbs are effective at that distance, fluorescent bulbs really aren't. If you post the brand and type of bulb we can help more.

    Need Help with PETCO petition ..UPDATE new problems!10/21/09

    Good luck to you. A lot of companies have policies against fraternization within the same store or between different levels of authority. The old GM may not have enforced the policy but that doesn't mean the company can't enforce it now. Especially if you were informed of the policy when you...

    Guys, reptile carpet is not a new policy at PetSmart. It has been company policy to keep juvenile desert reptiles on carpet for YEARS. No particle substrate is approved for any juveniles. Calcium sand may be used for adult specimens (but usually isn't). No other dry particle substrate is...
