Hello everyone, I currently have a sulcata tortoise setup in a 40 gallon tank and just installed a fogger to control humidity levels. The humidity has improved a lot, so much that now I feel that temperatures have dropped a bit. My warm side is at about 88 degrees and my cool side at about 80 degrees. Humidity levels are between 70 to 80 percent. I have a zoomed reptisun 10.0 flourescent bulb for uvb. I use a 65 watt flood lamp for basking along with a CHE set on a thermostat switch which would suffice in the past. With the temperatures dropping and now the added humidity, I’m considering getting a zoomed power sun 100 watt bulb in order to increase temperatures. My worry is that maybe this will provide too much UVB. The zoomed reptisun bulb sits on a screen so I lose some uvb there already. Any idea if it’s too much overkill on UVB ? I love in Palmdale, CA at the moment and it’s getting to about 45 degrees at night. Any ideas/opinions would help a lot thank you !
