 Lighting?

okay than. hopefully i will get some responses.

i have a fair knowledge of these little guys already, but i have seen numerous post about safe lighting and bad bulbs. will someone please tell me and if possible give me some links on which bulbs i should be using? im about to set up the tanks and get them going before i go to the next reptile show in october. any help is appreciated. im going to get the tanks set up and check all the temps before i get the new additions to the family.

Thanks in advance,
ViT

I dont know how to do the link thing on here... still kinda new.. but a ReptiSun 10.0 tube or ReptiGlo 8.0 (not 10.0!) tube also... not compact. Then of course your basking light.
Just lghts that you need help on?

i cant remember the links, but cp put a post on here about the bad lights... as far as i know, the only safe ones are the reptisun 10, reptiglo 8, and the mvb. i personally use the reptisun 10 in my water dragon’s enclosure, and have mvb bulbs on my beardie’s and iggie’s enclosures. i know the coil/compact bulbs are bad, i have had personal experience with this...
