Hey all... im a newbie to this forum... so Hello to you all
Just wondering on some night setup advice for my Yemen Chameleon.
I've just this weekend upgraded the viv size of my Yemen Chameleon as he's approached 5 months old.
He's now in a mesh Repti-Breeze 4ft(H)x2ft(W)x2ft(D) viv. I have the lighting/heating on the outside on top... 10% UV Tube and 100W Neodymium Daylight spot lamp... as shown below;
So that's his day temps sorted!
At night as it's a mesh viv the temps drop quite easily which triggers the BRIGHT daylight lamp to come on and then have a disco by flick on and off about every 30mins (im using a lucky reptile thermo control pro 2)... im thinking of a secondary night lamp to use which emits no light to use for his night setting. Ive been looking at the 100w exo-terra infa red ceramic heater to use with a Habistat dimmer and setting up timers so that it takes over from the day heating at the correct time... just wondering if anyone is using this setup and if it's good?... or any suggestions for another night setup.
Cheers
