Hey guys, I bought a used 40 Gallon terrarium for my future beardie, also purchased a T8 UVB light and fixture to mount under the mesh, as well as a heat lamp. I have set it up with the heat lamp on the mesh, and turned both lights on for a few hours to see what temperatures I was reaching, and I was only getting 75 degrees under the basking light. I am thinking a solution would be to add a CHE light above the mesh as well to reach the proper temp, which I will need anyways for night time. Does anyone have any other advice on how to tackle this issue? My house is generally pretty cool, so I figured I would need atleast one extra light to boost the heat.
