Okay so today I changed my tortoises heat lamp because the first bulb died. (This is the first time I changed bulbs because I just got Rolo last week). However, after barely a minute the lamp started to smoke and smell really bad, like something was burning. I quickly turned the lamp off and opened the windows. The bulb is 150 watt infrared basking bulb and the lamp says up to 150 watt, which I assumed included 150 watts. Was I wrong? I can't figure out what happened. Also is the smoke or whatever dangerous?? What should I do?
