Question

I did that now at 104 and 74.3

That's a great basking surface temp. How does your beardie like it?

Since the cool side temp is only 74, it would be great if you could get that up a little more within the 78 to 82 range. Do you have another dome light/clamp lamp that you could put a 25 to 40 watt household light bulb in? It wouldn't have to be a real large dome. That would not only raise the cool side temp but may even bring the basking temp up a degree or 2.

On my 40 gallon breeder, I have an 80 watt MVB on a lamp stand for basking & a 40 watt household bulb on the cool side, basking temp of about 103 and cool side about 81 which my
2 1/2 yr old female prefers.

I will pick one up , I am about to head to the store .

 

[diamc]

Ok, good. Let me know how the temps are then, they should be perfect.

 

[marius47]

Looks like 108 and 79.
