Howdy Kevin, Although it is possible that a brand new 18" (T5) Reptisun 5.0 positioned at 4" might be a bit high in UVB for a baby Melleri, after less than a...

Hello All, I had a quick question. I recently had a friend on the forum who has been using the Zoomed Powersun on all of her dragons, with no problems at all....
All I know is that bulbs have some sort of filter like coating on the lens so that the radiation levels are safe. I can be that this coating somehow came loose...
Hi, Tracie. No need to panic about this... I don't like to criticize a colleague, but there are times when there seems no alternative. The dragon surely could...
