I have a ho t5 10.0 uvb bulb reptisun in my 40 gal breeder and I dust my beardies food but I think he’s been needing more uvb based on some symptoms, so I ordered an exxo terra sunglo mercury vapor bulb 125 watt and the reviews were really good, the reviews for this bulb were better than the other mvb”s I saw. Also people were saying to keep the reptisun uvb bulb I already have going along with it. So my question is, do I need to get new calcium powder without d3? Right now I have calcium powder with vitamin d3 and I heard you shouldn’t get calcium with d3 if you use a mercury vapor bulb, so wanted to know about that and does it sound corrwct, should I use my reptisun t5 10.0 uvb bulb in conjunction with this new mercury vapor bulb I will receive tomorrow?
Thank you!
This is how it is right now, I had it downward for a while but either way, whether it’s downward or outward he still walks on his wrist not his hands. And his legs and arms just seem kinda weakish, I don’t know. I dust appropriately and he eats well.
And again, everyone talking about this bulbs, writing reviews said you have to have a uvb bulb along with the mercury vapor bulb because the mercury vapor bulb only radiates uvb in the spot they are basking, so you should have a uvb bulb running along the tank as well? With this mercury vapor bulb, am I to get calcium without d3? I heard with mercury vapor bulbs you shouldn’t have give d3 because their organs calcifies? Idk thanks
