My Big girl has had one for about 2 years now (replaced every 6 months) and has had no problems whatsoever. Please, help me out. Im pretty sure they are okay, for my beardies are going great. What to do?!

The bad Zilla bulbs were pulled off the market in September of 2007. New lamps were introduced in August of 2008. The new lamps have a spectrum very similar to the Zoomed 10.0. If you are not having any problems there is no reason to change them.

Ok, thanks so much. I was really worried. But we got our bulbs after that, and they have been changed since. Thank you again!!! :D

everyone does realize that this site is not the bible of Bearded Dragons, right? I mean just because everyone and thier grandma says the only bulb to use is the reptisun10.0 does not mean that its the only bulb out there that works. If the bulb you are using doesnt cause problems for you, why would you go change it up just because you read it here? If it aint broken , dont fix it.

No, i was just asking because some people have problems with it.
And these people do have experiance, (though so do i), i just wanted someone elses input. No need to be rude. I was simply asking for advice. Though i see no problem with my light, i just wanted to make sure there wasent something i wasent overlooking. :)

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
