Hey guys, I am wondering for a RFT what would I use as a heat source, would I need a gay time bulb and a basking bulb? How many watts? What about UVA? I am so confused. Can someone please help me, Also What is the best brand of calcium and vitamin power to put on their food for them to absorb? and could you check out my "bugs" thread?

Thanks!!
Sean

for heating you'll want a CHE and no not a day time bulb just a normal household light i use a 60w will do how many watts depends on your needs we can't answer that for it all depends on your temps personally i use 2 CHE's on a thermostat the CHE's are 60w and 150w you most uvb bulbs put out uva to for calcium i use repti calcium with D3 red foot's don't like bright lights and will hide if they feel it's to bright

if i'm not mistaken you already made a thread about lighting have you tried to check back there to see what people say?
