Upgraded to a bigger tank which now requires a 150W basking lamp. Been using Zoo Med but now having issues with them burning out within a month or two. So thinking about switching to a flood light but not really sure what kind to buy and how to figure out what wattage I would need that would equate to the 150W I've been using. Thoughts?
Brandon has a better idea of other bulbs -- its gonna be trial and error just make sure you have a digital probe or infrared heat gun or both to get accurate temps---- I am currently using the Exo Terra 150 watt basking bulb -- they only last so long ---- I am going to be picking up a GE Incandescent 125 Watt BR 40 from walmart and see how that works for my 120 gallon tank --- I am gonna start there and see what happens
