Hello!
I've been so busy of late, I wish I could be posting more!
Anyway -
It's been getting colder up here in the Northeast, and I've noticed that the temps in Bean's tank are decreasing slightly as well. He's set up now with a Reptisun and a 100 watt household bulb during the day, and a ceramic(no light) heat emitter at night. I'm wondering how I would increase his heat without doing harm to him. Would a 150 or 200 watt bulb be okay? I was also thinking about keeping the 100 watt bulb and just adding another bulb in a lamp next to it, but I don't want it to be too bright. I've got his ceramic heat emitter going with the day bulb during the day, but I'm afraid as winter gets colder it wont be enough(just moved to an older apartment, so the insulation isn't what my last apartment was!)
Thanks so much,
Emily and Bean
