Hey Guys!
I am currently in the process of gathering the rest of my lights for a new cham.
So far, ive picked up the following items:
- Zoo Med Deluxe Porcelain Clamp Lamp with 5.5-Inch Dome, Black
- Zoo Med ReptiSun® 5.0 Compact Fluorescent Lamp
- Zoo Med Reptile Basking Spot Lamp 50 Watts
I am assuming that I will be able to use either bulb with the lamp clamp(Cut me off here if I am already wrong^^)
I was then planning to find a household light fixture for the basking light. Curious how the community feels as I would like to avoid burning down my place when possible . im assuming porcelain is a must.
ALSO, if you are still reading, i was planning to upgrade to a tube light when replacing the compact bulb. Does it make a difference if I use a 24" tube fixture on an 18" cage? are there any negative effects? or is it strictly for aesthetic reasons?
Cheers,
Chris
