coil bulb ok?

[trinity040400]

Is it ok to use a uv coil house hold bulb for my beardie tank to add light? Or is it too bight? It is one of those energy saver bulbs.

Use an LED instead, they give off less heat and use even less energy. It's perfectly to add another bulbs for light as long as it doesn't mess up the temps.

I would just use a low wattage incandescent or halogen. I'd stay away from the coils. LED's really haven't had enough research done on them yet IMO.
