So it's gotten about 20 degrees colder over the last week here in Phoenix. I keep my bedroom window open because I love the cold air at night, and it's significantly cooled down my apartment to about 70 degrees now.
Because of the drop in temp in my apartment, my chameleons 75 watt soft-white bulb is not providing enough heat now.
I have read others get much higher temps with 75W but I can't seem to produce these temps, so I am wondering if I should use a different type of light bulb, or upgrade to a 100w soft-white?
Right now his basking spot is 81 degrees, way too cold for a 7 month old veiled. Do you think a 100W would be too much, or should I try a "clear" 75W?
Just trying to see what you guys think is the right wattage before I come home with 20 different types and wattages of light bulbs.
