Bandit's tank is in my room and his night heat lamp is a bright red light. It's hard for me to fall asleep since the heat lamp is so bright. Is a no light heat lamp a thing? Bandit also likes to walk around his tank and try different spots for sleeping. Could he do that if he had less light?

Any colored bulbs are NO good for dragons - they like cool and dark 65-75 ambient temps- colored bulbs damage dragons eyes - they disrupt the sleep and will cause health issues long run- please get rid of it- what are you using for a UVB? NO coils please they are a health hazard --- if you need heat at night please get a ceramic heat emitter CHE -- place on top of the screen middle of the tank the wattage will determine the tank size

Okay thanks I needed a new heat lamp anyways. He has a 75 gallon tank. Any recommended brands for a CHE? The reason I had a red light was because I got his tank used and the light came with it (the light wasn't used the people I bought it from hadn't used the tank much) so I didn't do much research on night heat lamps.

You dont want your tank over 75 at night --- I use a deep dome for the CHE - Zoo Med Reptile Mini Deep Dome Lamp | reptile Light Fixtures | PetSmart
Zoo Med ReptiCare Ceramic Heat Emitter | reptile Heaters | PetSmart
I would go w/ a 100 watt for your 75 gallon

Sir Henry the dragon
Looking for his dragon girl
Ventures out in to the wide world
His hopes are up but as you can see
There is no dragon girl for Sir Henry
A light bulb goes off and he takes mom aside
Could you perchance get me a mail order bride ?

Hey! We’re the same age! That’s cool!
Hi there a little update we went from a 50 watt heat lamp to a 100 watt basking halogen heat lamp hahaha I saw some comments about it being so close so I made sure to put it a ruler away from her
Has anyone seen this before? Something in the corner of his mouth
