Don't scrimp on UVB. Get a nice T5 high output ReptiSun 10.0 with appropriate HO fixture. As for the basking bulb, you can go with a PAR38 halogen flood light. Maybe start with a 90w and test temps with that. Those are a lot cheaper than the reptile basking bulbs and do just as well as far as I know. They should be available at most hardware stores.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
