Hi all
Im just about to set up a 4x2x2 enclosure to keep small dragons in and im wondering about the light types/placements.
So many sources have said different things argh!
I know i'll want a UV light and a heat lamp but is it best to use say a 2ft UV tube or a UV spot bulb on the basking area?
Also i'll need a night time heat source especially over winter so is it worth using a heat cord under half the enclosure and just a UV Spot bulk as the basking lamp? Then id need a 2ft fluro as a viewing light aswell!
Have I confused you yet? Good
Also with the temp gradients im assuming you just set a thermostat halfway along the tank and set the temp there?
Anyways if you understood a single word ive said your doing pretty good and probably intelligent enough to answer my question
Dont forget if you can offer a pic, they tell a thousand (or so) words!
So thanks in advance!
