Alright so my setup is a zoo-med combo light over a large alii ficus tree (free range) I put regular 65 watt light bulbs in the hood (3), and have another 75 watt (specific daytime bulb) for the basking.
Wasting all this energy is really bothering me. I want to put super white CFL's in the hood and use a ceramic heater to increase the top for basking. Does anyone have any experiance with these? what wattage should I get?
I also dont like my current set up's temperature gradient. the basking is around 85, but never over 90 (seems a tad to low), and a large portion of the plant is in the high 70's low 80's.
Oh yea I have a 8 month old female veiled. She gets sprayed twice a day, humidity is around 50%, obviously higher when I spray.
Still feeding here daily at 10 large crickets a day, she also eats the pothos when she fells sorry about murdering all those crickets.
Thanks
