[QUOTE="CooperDragon, post: 2021809, member: 76248"] The thing you run into with the combo bulbs is that you need to set them at a certain distance to provide adquate UVB. That can cause problems with getting the right temp range. It's easier to control the environment the way you have it because you can set your T5 at the appropriate distance, then adjust the wattage and height of the basking bulb independently so you can get a good temp range. I suggest trying a lower wattage bulb or changing the height of the bulb (if it isn't fixed to the top of the tank) to adjust the temps for summer. You can use most wide/flood style bulbs really. I've had good luck with PAR38 halogen bulbs and BR40 incandescent bulbs of various wattages. You can usually get those at a hardware store and they're cheaper than the reptile branded basking bulbs.
