UVB Question?

[Andrew27]

Right now I have an Exo Terra coil bulb for my Jackson Chameleon. But I heard basically that coil bulbs suck, so does anyone have any recommendations as to what I should get? Is the Reptisun by Zoomed OK?

Many a user, including myself, use the reptisun 5.0. How large is your enclosure, how dense is the foliage and how old is your Cham?

 

[Andrew27]

My enclosure is 18x18x36 with a lot of foliage. She is about a year and 2-3 months old

You might can use the 10.0 and monitor her to see if she closes her eyes. Does she get any outside play time?

 

[Andrew27]

No, she gets stressed when I hold her, and I dont have an outdoor cage. I think I'll stick to the 5.0

I suggest you use a Zoo MED CFL...
if you must use a CFL.
There is a big difference.

Arcadia lights are the sh*t!!! well worth looking into, they make the viv so much brighter to as there a tube rather than a bulb
