[QUOTE="FloraBelle, post: 1612418, member: 75271"] Hello, all I did enjoy reading both Jess and BadCon's posts... I was wondering if either of you have any suggestions for determining the wattage needed for the basking light. I am considering the ZooMed Repti Basking Spot Lamp... but not sure what wattage. We are building a 5'x2'x2' wooden cage with glass doors. We are thinking of the 48" Reptisun 10.0 for UVB. As to the UVB: Do I need to run the tube along the entire 60" of the enclosure, or will 48" be sufficient? Will I need another light of some kind for additional visual light? If so, where should I place it? In the 12 inch area not covered by the UVB tube? Somewhere else? Considering also a CHE "just in case" it gets too chilly at night. The ReptiBasking Spots come in 25, 50, 75, 100, 150 watt strengths. I was thinking either 75 or 100? What do you think? Will I need more than one? Lastly - venting the enclosure. Should I have vents along the back and sides of the enclosure? Also... both sides, or just the "cool" side (to help with temperature regulation?) Thank you for any advice or suggestions...
