Day lighting ideas?

[Nal0114]

Sooooo….

Ms Jade needs new lights, and not only do I want these lights to work well for her basking and daylight needs, I also want my plants to benefit from them.

Any ideas on what I can use for the little lady?

Are you replacing all her lights? Or just a plant light?

Arcadia lighting is the best... they have LED lights for plants and the UVB fixtures. If you want standard then a ProT5 with a 6% bulb for UVB and a jungle dawn LED bar. If you want fancy then their new lumenize versions you can have more of a slow ramp up and down like dawn and dusk. https://www.arcadiareptile.com/

Does anyone have any experience with this basking bulb? It does UVA and UVB

You would not want to use MV bulbs for chameleons unless you have a large free range and a solarmeter to measure the UVI output. Not only do these produce much too high levels of UVB for our small cages but they can produce very hot temps.

You want the ProT5 with a 6% bulb. 24 inch fixture length.
