Yeah the probe pretty much stays wrapped around that log so it's always reading. 105-110 is standard. it's 108 right now. Last night he slept ON the wire running from the probe out of the tank... arms hanging to the sides like a fat cat might sleep...
No it was on the way to work at 4am. I just used my phone to shed enough light to see where he was sleeping. I didn't want to disturb him by turning on enough lights to get a pic.
what's this?? a light bulb that produces vitamins?!?!?! I don't think that's correct......The dragon's skin produces D3 as it absorbs UVB........a light bulb produces light.........
I am slowly building my new VIV and am buying things little by little. Is this bulb OK for the COOL side just to add some light?
It's a 40 watt daylight compact florescent. All I am looking for is added light for the inside.
Thanks for the link. I remember seeing it at one time but I couldn't remember where it was to get back there.
The one I posted are actually 5000k so I am right in the mark.
Just something to watch out for that I was warned of: Some CFLs say that they aren't meant to be used on a timer, because they have the wrong ballast for it. I guess there's some debate going on right now on whether or not they are safe to use, but personally I've been using them for a couple years without any issues. I turned mine off for now because of the ballast/timer thing, and I haven't noticed a change in Dud's behavior at all.
I just wanted to point out that post has extremely flawed logic in it. Don't be fooled into thinking a post is accurate just because they use fancy words not often said.
