[QUOTE="PMPerformance, post: 1633473, member: 76731"] Now onto my own lighting woes. I have been using 5.5" dome's for about 6-7 months now with what I thought to be with success. I got a temp gun this weekend and started playing and found the hammock in the basking spot was not holding any heat. I put the hide/basking piece we originally used in the backing spot and the temps are now holding much better. However now I am setting up my other tank I am wondering what I should change. I am running the Zoomed 75w basking bulb in the 5.5" dome on the lid and seems to be getting on the hotter side around 115-118. I got a stand to bring it up a bit this morning and now the temps dropped considerably. I am wondering if I should go with an 8" dome and 100W bulb with a different fixture with dimmer and stand and get uber amounts of adjustability to dial in. Any other considerations to take in with jumping to a bigger dome? Maybe more spread light/heat output for more gradient temp changes and not as drastic down tank? [/QUOTE]
