kobypruitt":3dpv5bgo said:This is Dino's vivarium, I have had him for a week. UVB bulb is a Zilla T8 18" 15-watt fluorescent bulb. Basking Bulb is 100-watt zoo med bulb. It is in the double deep dome fixture, but there is only one bulb in. Basking spot runs high 90's up to about 102. The rest of his warm side is low 90's and high 80's.
Cool side is high 70's. Any suggestions would be great.
Yes I removed the plastic guard and what about the light fixture blocking the basking bulb?CooperDragon":37jk37m6 said:I also suggest moving the T8 fixture right over the basking area rather than having it in the middle. Have you removed the clear plastic from in front of the bulb in that one? If left on, it will intercept the UVB coming from the bulb.
I have a digital probe thermometer and an infrared gun that I used to get those temps, the dial thermometer is stuck on the glass and I don't want to make a mess removing it. Thanks for the help.Stres":1x7gp6u4 said:kobypruitt":1x7gp6u4 said:This is Dino's vivarium, I have had him for a week. UVB bulb is a Zilla T8 18" 15-watt fluorescent bulb.

It's recommended that you use digital thermometers as the dial ones can be out by up to 20 degrees, also a infra red thermometer gun to measure the basking surface area will help you keep it within the correct range.

Very, very nice....so spacious + lots for her to do in there.Only thing I'd change is the night bulbs. They can disturb their sleep, plus it's fine for the temps. to drop to 65 at night. Any cooler than that and you can use a che [ ceramic heat emitter ] that produces heat but no light.
