Prefers the Powersun!?

[sdunfee77]

I've used Powersuns for most of my beardies. My WD's actually used to have powersun but i switched to the Reptisun 10.0 for them.

Ginger one of my BD's had a powersun when she was younger but I switched to Reptisun 10.0 for the last few months and she's been hiding more, not really active and not eating as much. I just put the Powersun back in her viv and she already looks brighter and more alert and basking since I put it back in.

Has anyones BD actually prefered the Powersun MVB over the Reptisun 10.0 like this?

I'll keep an eye on her but already she seems better.

Spike, my oldest BD has always had a Powersun and he's the most active, FAT, bright BD and has always been. I have Houdini and Cloe under Powersun and Butters and Pookie under Reptisun 10.0.

Then on an opposite preference.....

I noticed that with these two below, given the choice they will go stay on the side of the tank where there is a Reptisun 5.0 UVB and completely avoid the Powersun. Just as a test. So I took the Powersun out of their tank and left a Reptisun 10.0, let's see how that goes.

Butters and Pookie are in a 75 gallon which I had a seperator for but for some reason and I don't know HOW he does it but Pookie will find a way to get over to Butters side and lay with him on his basking spot. There is no possible way he can squeeze through the divider and he can't climb out, well I haven't seen anyway so I have no clue how he gets over there!

I definitely don't want them housed together but WHY does he INSIST on being near Butters?

Here, I JUST put him on the other side of the seperated tank and I went to get a drink and smoke outside, came back and BOOM he's BACK over there!!

Don't mind Butters Beard, he's bobbing at Spike who's about 3feet from his tank outside looking through the window. He's not bobbing at Pookie.
