I have a bit of a problem. I keep adding tortoises and therefore adding lights. My current electric bill is $608. The heat bulbs I think are the culprits more then the UVB bulbs. Are the Megaray bulbs more cost effective? Any other options out there? The room is a dedicated snake room, which is kept at 83-85 at all times for an ambient room temp. Do I really need hot basking spots with an ambient room temp like that? The floor of the room is usually around 78.
Any ideas? The heat lamps are going to have to go. Something has to give here. I still have until probably May before my torts can go outside here. The room has to be kept heated for the snakes, so that cant change.
