ZooMed lamps have long been well-regarded and were the go-to lamps since I started keeping herps in the early 1990s. Their T-12 5% UVB 'iguana light' was a game changer back then (yes, UVB levels keepers are providing have gone up drastically since those days). I personally think ZooMeds are...

I appreciate the feedback. I use their T5 lamps, too, and think they're good. I'm not sure what the point of the post I quoted was intended to be, but perhaps it was just an offhand miswording.

I stumbled across this comment in researching Arcadia's supplements (not so much facts about them, which I am aware of, but keepers' opinions of them): https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/arcadia-supplements-hopping-on-the-hype-train.173642/page-2 I got the jist of the Deep Heat issues...

'Wattage' is a measure of electrical consumption; a lamp doesn't 'put out' wattage, it puts out light. Wattage is not a measure of light. Flo lamps do have a rated wattage, but it is simple and safe and effective to drive lamps at a higher than rated wattage (and a higher than rated lumen...

Agreed. On a related note, I bought a red blood python and a couple mourning geckos, and left them in my hotel room. The hotel put out an obnoxious sign that said that they'd be inspecting rooms to see that there were no animals in the rooms, and that made me think that hiding a snake in a...

I was there yesterday (the show continues through today). Great show overall; better selection of all types of herps than in past years. There was one dedicated cham breeder (Chameleon Addicts) who had a handful of younger Panthers for sale. His booth was not busy, which suggested to me...

I worked at a really cool LFS (local fish store) for a couple years. Everyone who worked there was a geek for some aspect of the hobby -- for example, there was a guy who was just crazy for Goodieds, little grey livebearing fish. He'd go on for hours about them. Anyway, people with odd...

I agree (though like many people, on very little evidence) that Ebola is not likely a big risk for virtually anyone outside West Africa. That said, it apparently can be transmitted zoonotically...

I have this one in my rep room: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Sunbeam-Ultrasonic-Humidifier-SUL2512-HUM/203322258?N=5yc1vZc4lvZ1z0uj57 I like it because it has a built in humidistat (which is actually pretty accurate). The tank is a little hard to fill (clunky tank shape, and small fill hole)...

NARBC is in Chicago (Tinley Park, specifically) the 11th and 12th of October. The vendors are listed here (http://www.narbc.com/Tinley/vendors_narbc_tinley_park.html); there may be a few bringing Panthers. The vendor list keeps growing, too, so maybe check back in a couple weeks also. Worth...
