Hello everyone! I just bought my son a 7 month old baby sulcata. We currently have him on a 20 gallon tank using a mixture of coco husk and eco earth coco peat as the substrate. I was concerned about the heat lamps that they sold us and really should have done my research on it before buying it. For the day time heating I have a day/night tropical lighting kit that has a 60 watt blue (for day time) and red (night time). After reading several pages I realized that these bulbs are no good. I also have a Reptisun terrarium hood UVB light that I use during the day. Is there a good bulb that I should replace the blue bulb with? I live in Southern California and stopped using the red bulb at night since reading that they do not need heat at night. Can you guys please recommend the best heating bulb to use with the type of tank that I have for him? We have soaked him in warm water every other day and take him outside to be in sunlight for at least an hour everyday. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated! I want to make sure I give this little guy the best care! Also, feeding. I give him collards, mustard greens and lettuce with calcium sprinkled on top. Tips on how often I should be feeding it?
