Thanks for the advice, we both use the repti-glo tubes i had a 8.0 on mine, i dont know what my friend had, i have just invested in some new tubes for my new viv.

My panther cham seems quite tame towards me, maybe a bit too much when he comes out of his viv he will climb up my arm and sit on my head, he doesnt mind sitting there or on my shoulder n doesnt hiss at me if i go to take him out viv, but huffs n puffs at other people. Maybe its that he...
