Hi, I have dwarf herrmans in a tortoise table, I am using
Hagen Exo-Terra Solar Glo Sun Lamp 125w for there lighting/ heating. What I would like to know is how long should it be left on for?. I currently have it on from 9am to 5/6 pm but wanted to know if this is right. Also does anyone know what distance the bulb should be from the floor of the table?
Thank you in advance
Sharon

well i have a 100w and it heats up about 35-40*F I believe it is better for you to turn the lights of att night so they can feel that drop in temperatures my light goes on at 7-8am i changed it from 6 because i need a timer and i turn it off at 11pm [tiago wakes up at 11am] so he gets 12hours of warmth! :D Hope this helped......
People may argue agains this but...my opinion! :D
