Using a 75W halogen basking bulb, i get a high temp of 125-150 at the hottest spot directly below the bulb, but that quickly dissipates to a 100-90 as you move away from that central spot.
Is this fine and he will just settle down in a spot that has the most comfortable temp for him? or do I need to use a lower wattage bulb? or lower the basking spot further from the bulb (currently at about 6" i would estimate, but i can measure when i get home for exact distance from bulb to branch)?
