Questions
I have a 36x24x24 enclosure for my beardie, is the 85watt ok to use, it’s not going to be over kill? Also do I need to use a lamp dome?
- No I don’t think 85 watts is overkill. You will need a deep dome lamp fixture. Zoo Med has a helpful chart: https://zoomed.com/wp-content/uploads/Choosing-Correct-UVB-Lamp-2018-07.pdf

Does this come with a lamp to screw the bulb in? Or just a bulb?
- The Powersun UV mercury vapor bulb does not come withe the fixture, you will need to purchase the fixture separately. Please make sure to get one with a ceramic socket for the Powersun bulb.

Does this product work as a basking light and a UVB light for a russian tortoise?
- Yes. We use it on our Russian tort. We use a 160 watt bulb, not sure of the wattage on this one.
Helpful?
How long to keep on?
- I would suggest buying and using a red/night light for any animal. To keep their " internal clocks" on a steady schedule. The two outlet timer is also good to have to keep a steady time on the switch between bulbs. Also you wouldn't want to sleep with a bright light shining in your eyes.

I have an anole (my son caught outside) we've fixed up a nice tank for him. He is super social and has become a pretty neat pet! I have a lamp for him but am given to understand we need a uvb lamp. Since the lizard is from GA, what wattage would we need? We are leaving for a week and want to make sure everything is properly timed
I have a 20 gallon tank for my bearded dragon and I just need to know how many watts of UVB do I need
What watt uth should I use for a ten gal Kenyan sand boa tank? And would it be beneficial to use a heat lamp since my house gets cold? If so what bulb/watt?
What is the best way to heat hedgehog cage with lamp?
What watt under the tank heater will I need for a Kenyan sand boa? Will it prefer a heat lamp too? If so, what type of bulb?
Since full spectrum growl lights for plants are supposed to mimic natural sunlight (is that correct?) then can I use that for my green anole lizard glass cage and save all that cost for a uvb light? I also have a heating pad for my back I could put under it if need be...?
Hi there. So I am looking into getting a heat dome for my crested gecko. I know they don’t have to have a heat lam but I want him to have a UVB bulb Because it’s good for them. But I am not quite sure that type to get. Any suggestions? I was looking at petco’s tropical combo pack. He lives in a 10 g. With live plant. (I will upgrade when he is bigger) also do you know an age on him? I got him 3 months ago from petsmart. I could tell he was a male a week after I got him. (Pic from yesterday)
I have a fancy leopard gecko. His light died and all I have in the house are 15W LED’s. I cannot get to the store until Tues. will this light be okay until I can get to the pet store to get a new bulb?
What is wrong?What do I do? It’s not soft it’s very hard and he has a heat lamp and uvb. Thx
My bearded dragons heat lamp just burnt out - I don’t have a replacement and all of the local reptile/pet stores are closed for the night. What do I do to keep him safe until tomorrow when I can get him a new light?
I have a pastel ball python and I was wondering how many watts I need to get for a basking spot in a 20 gallon tank and he will be turning a year old in september
My red eared slider is not basking even though I brought a uvb light for her just like one of the pet coach vets told me because he has soft shell.I place the light on top of a Zilla screen cover but she still don't get on.I can't really dry dock her because I have a hood for my uvb light.How can I make her to bask and is the Zilla cover okay for her?
