Where you live your chams are lucky enough to get out to see the sun!!! But for the time inside as mine are 85% of the time, I use the 10. because it can't hurt go have it go to 20" instread of the 5.0 that only goes down 10". I think it is a choice that for most people doesn't make a lot of difference.
Yes Motor has already started telling his cage mates they have to stay and he is going to a great new home.
Motors brothers and sisters won't have to worry about missing him growing up, as I will post updates often. All you need to do is get them to aim thier little googly eyes at the monitor.
I use miracle grow organic soil and pretty much leave it as is. I do sift the top layer and remove any large chunks or mulch, the soil is usually a fine consistance at that point. I havent seen any of them eatting soil whatsoever. I did the moss and the rocks in the past, and it either smelled, or grew fungus. The debate over covering soil is ongoing, I'm going to keep it as is for the time being. The pots have been raised as well, I take a 1 1/2" piece of PVC and cut it into 1" sections and place 3 under each pot to create air flow under them. Thank you Todd, the information is always appriciated.
