Hi please xould you help im really confused and dont want ti be doing something to harm my baby indian star.
I have set up my viv as advised with a uvb tube along the full length which is on 12 or so hours a day amd switched off at night. This provides his light requirement.
For heat i then have a CHE at one end which gives a temp of around 95f underneath it. This to me was his basking spot and provides the heat he needs during the day and at night.
Does he also need a seperate bulb to bask in? Or is the light from one source and heat from another enough.
Please any advise would help. He eats well and generally seems healthy but im worried that ive not seen him poo yet (weve had him a week) and he mostly just sleeps.
Thank you
