So my terranium lighting is per what is recommended and seems to be good. The more I read about lighting the more confused I am getting. Im currently building a tank free area for her.
1) From what I have read they need 12 hours of UVB a day. How does anyone then have the time to let them out of their cage with having to keep them under a UVB for 12 hours?
2) I had no idea that too much UVB is a thing. Some blogs say basing with eyes closed is a sign of too much UVB? Is there any others?
3) 4 basking hours a day. And regular temp around 80-90 range.
4) I am loving the mesh holders that go around the heat bulb. Without the round reflective dome how do you get enough heat in there?
5) Is there any difference between the 200w incandesent bulbs at the hardware store compared to reptile heat lights?
