When people have the 20 gallon tanks and are using coils I recommend they get a 24" fixture and just improvise using it till they upgrade to a bigger tank --- they can have it sitting width wise across that 20 gallon tank - a 24" fixture will go right into a 40+ gallon tank w/ no problem--

It's inside? I heard they could be inside the habitat... oh, did I do wrong? She seems okay... even went from gray to orange. Is that bad? No plastic cover... dome is open for lack of a better word. And it's actually reptisun. The dome is a brand I can't remember... zoomed?KarrieRee":14re9lco said:Ok T 8's need to have a distance of 8-10 inches w/ NO screen-- plastic cover off the fixture w / bulb exposed

Whew!! Yes, it's inside Flemeth's 'room'. Was scared for a minute. My boss has a fat happy boy and he told me to do this. He even recommended the lights. She's so orange now!! Well, some of her isn't because of shed. She wants to get out and I feel so guilty because she is shedding. Spiders die if you interrupt molts.KarrieRee":q084lkh2 said:You have the T 8 inside the tank? That is good your basking decor should be 8-10 inches from bulb

Oh, dear, we just upgraded to 75. Is it still too small?? Two days ago we moved her. Again, I am worried about the shed. As a spider keeper for years, I still am concerned about reptiles shedding. Is it the same?? Leave them alone??? Also, wow! I feel like I'm being integrated. My boss Matt has had his boy for three years and he is who I turn to for advice because he's close by. Flemeth eats, poops, and plays like a champ. I figured I was doing everything okay. She even got a larger room two days ago... but I still feel for some reason I'm doing something wrong ?KarrieRee":26469ttx said:She needs to go into a bigger tank--- 20 gallon is too small- I recommend you start looking for a tank 75-120 gallon-- 40 is minimum for a full size dragon and even then it becomes too small
