Jelloman New Member May 21, 2013 #1 It got pretty hot in my Cham room today. I read 94 degrees in the basking area. Should i turn off the basking light on 80-90 degree days or just put a fan in the room to move the air about? Thanks

Hoj Friendly Grasshopper May 21, 2013 #2 I do a combination of both on really hot days, I find it very dark without the basking light so I often add a cfl to give a nice light.
