Hey all, I just finished up my new 40 Gal enclosure and have my ReptiSun mounted inside on the back wall. With the fake rock walls I have in there that I made, he can easily climb the sides and back of the setup which is cool being that it gives him something to do. But every now and then he climbs the back wall and almost tries to get on top of the UVB bulb...he kinda scratches at it but can't get on top of it because of the lack of grip. So every now and then he'll just hangout right under it. I'm posting a picture below to show how close I mean.
His basking spot where he spends most of the day, is about 10" from the UVB bulb, I know it's kind of far...I'm just worried that him being so close to the bulb will cause some issues? He's there maybe 2-5 minutes at a time until he runs off and climbs on something else. I am just concerned because of how close he gets can this cause eye issues or anything? If so how can I prevent this?! ):
