It could bother him if he is sitting right there basking. You can always adjust it to shoot furthure out. Other wise I really like how thick the octopus plant is.
That looks much better for his basking spot . It's also good that you added more highways, but I would suggest to place more branches higher up to fill that empty space so he can utilize every inch of his cage as possible. By doing this it will also help deter him from wanting to climb on the cage walls as much, which they always do to make us worry about them falling
Them falling always scares the crap out of you. But after my nosy male Vito, who I should have named crash, I don't worry so much. Looks good. Just be sure that the basking temps are good.
your looking good that light is a pretty hot one i use them for my beardies so ya not to close you will know if you put a thermometer in the basking spot and set accordingly.
