Yellow beard, not eating

Would this work?

Most use the Zoo Med digital probe found at PetSmart or Petco

 

[RobertKirk]

Also, this is the T5 we bought. Is this correct?

Yes- placement and distance will be determined by your screen

No the ones are yellow that I am talking about

 

[RobertKirk]

Got it, thanks!

KarrieRee-
Do I put his new light on top of the screen? We bought the Arcadia ProT5.

What is the screen like? Is it a fine mesh like a screen door or a wide hole type?

 

[RobertKirk]

Sorry, I’m unsure. Here’s what it looks like.

Thats a wide hole type it can sit on top place a piece of basking decor directly underneath 8-10 inches - make sure you change your bulb out in approx one year I recommend 10-11 months

I think he likes it! We are probably going to need to move his taller log forward. Excuse the poop mess, I need to clean it and cook it in the oven tomorrow. But his basking lamp is more over the back spot, so unsure if this will all work. Will measure it shortly.

If you cant get the basking light and the UVB together that is fine - you can always set another basking light behind the UVB in the middle of the tank for him --- I see a coil -- your not using that are you?

Do you mean the dual coil that was his original UVB lamp? No I have that turned off since we have the T5 now. Is that correct?

The basking lamp is on the left and is a 150w bulb.

yes get rid of the coil --- you can also have the UVB fixture sit vertical on top as well --- just as long as he can get directly under it 8-10 inches

But I can still use the heat lamp side of the whole thing correct? (Because we have the Zoo Med dual heat lamp/uvb set up). But just leave the uvb coil light off?
