You spoke with Bob?and he said it was sage for 160 watt to be 12 inches away?I am sorry I am not trying to start a fight either however I have had numerous conversations wit Bob and have been using these bulbs for a very long time.Something is very wrong here.There is no way they would tell you this if they knew it was a 160.I am going to give him a call and try to clear this up.As far as I know nothing has changed with these bulbs so there should be no reason distance has changed.cath1024":40320 said:ok i have talked to someone at the mega ray company - talked with the reptile store lady and everything has been explained to me - the reptile store lady was not wrong with what she was telling me - she deals directly with this company and even took a course on these bulbs so I have no reason to not believe what she has been telling me all along as it is what she leant straight from the company itself. Im not saying anyone here was wrong or right as everyone has their own opinions.
I dont want to start any arguments of any sort but just wanted to say thank you to all who helped me turn in the direction of the lighting and temps being the possible cause of our dragons problem.
Let hope this is all its going to take to get him back to himself again
he ate 6 crickets this morning and just ate a piece of greens and his color is even looking brighter.
Thanks again!
