Red bulb

[Curlytails]

Hi guys! I'm new to chameleons and I was using a red bulb to heat my cage but now I changed it out for a daylight blue bulb and it's not on for 24 hours anymore. The room the enclosure is in drops to 65- 67f at night. Should I keep all lights off at Night?

Keep lights off at night, and replace the blue bulb with a standard incandescent white bulb please.

It's blue but the light coming off of it doesn't have a blue hue it's perfectly white is that ok?

A white light is still recommended.

I re checked the ambient temp again and the average is 72.4f I'll be fine if I keep all lights off right? The lowest it drops is 69.5f. I want the best for my lil dude.

Regardless if the temperature at night there should be No LIGHTS on at night. If the temperature is below 60 F you can use a ceramic heat emitter to keep the cage warm enough.
