    I wish they used their own meter and not one supplied by the same company that made the bulbs....

    So If I have a 40 gallon tank with screen the t5 5.0 bulb should be fine if I'm just setting it on top?

    Given an available range with climbing branches and such, will animals self regulate?

    I wished I had this info a year ago when I got my bearded dragons. Some of the info on lighting I've researched is so confusing and misleading. Even asking the store clerks for at Petsmart was like asking a child for the correct information. All this time to find out I´ve been using the wrong strength. It´s a miracle my dragons weren´t cooked alive. Thank you for correctly explaining how to use these bulbs.

    Is that reading wM/cm2?

    • @catherinepoloynis
      @catherinepoloynis ปีที่แล้ว

      It is miliWatt/centimeter squared and is a measure of solar power, so I imagine it is used in the solar panel industry. **en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_irradiance**

    this video does not provide correct information bearded dragons need a 120 gallon tank minimum and they need constant 3.5 uvb not 1.5

    I have a 10.0 T5 bulb when my bearded dragon, there's one stick that goes up to about 4 in from the ball that she likes to go sit on, should I cut that out of there and I let her do that or does she know when to move from it so it doesn't hurt her. The bulb that is only about 2 weeks old
