So it's not just me that happens to!!!!
LOL Likes something one day and will not eat it the next. Or walks through the food first then turns around to nibble. Just gotta love them though.
So I can try the Arcadia 12% with the 6.5k day light bulb double fixture. Any suggestions on where to find a solar meter ?? I have switched to the flood light and CHE. Temps 80-84. Basking 90-95 humidity 78-84 %. Getting better. Thanks for all the help

What site do you use to check if plants or edible. I use the uk tortoise table plant data base but so many of the plants names from local nurseries can't be found.

I'm going to get different flood bulbs thanks I have decided on a 10 tube bulb I will hang it lower. This forum is a turtle saver. Will post pics as soon as I'm done.

Can this light fixture be used to light up the enclosure on one bulb and uv on another not quite understanding if one bulb can be turned off Like turning off uv if not needed and other bulb left on just for lighting ? The single tube 22 inch is not available and I think 36 will be too long...
Ok. I think I'm getting there. 75 w basking spot lamp
Now which Arcadia light my enclosure is 2 x 6 and hide is 2x2 total 8x2 The light would hang at about 17 inches so I think I need the 12% and was thinking 24 inch was long enough
So disappointed I had the wrong uvb bulb Trying so hard...
Thanks. I will take out the coil bulb now. Going to get the right uvb and what about fluorescent will any type do to brighten up the enclosure

I though the temp was to high. Just got a 75 basking bulb and I have a temp gun. Just a small spot gets 110 but that's probably all it takes to hurt her. Yes that's the bulb. Should I change it. What can I use to brighten up the whole enclosure or should I not light it all up. Confused as usual...
I am currently using the repti sun 100 watt and uvb I also have a CHE for night but waiting to get a thermostat to connect it during the day. My temps are 80-90 basking spot 100-115 Should I go with a 75 basking bulk just to make sure it doesn't get too hot. I can't hang the light any...
Ok. I shall leave it unpainted then. I will post pics as soon as I have the enclosure ready I greatly appreciate your help tort dad

I have two fans blowing I will do my nose test and smell. Thanks again. So only the fumes can be harmful nothing to do with the oil base paint itself. Should the inside be painted. Of course this time with water base. I have a shower curtain liner on the bottom
