Bit creepy at 2:32 lol. But great video ... pangea rocks 👍🏻

[@RealPangeaReptile]

"Creepy?" Noooo. Kevin's just giving you that extra flavor.

[@twistedrockafella]

@Pangea Reptile LOL, great video and by the way my 2 cresties absolutely love pangea food, I have them on a rotation of a different flavour mixed half and half with your growth mix and they munch back every bit of it like clock work every other night. I was just wondering if you plan on releasing any more flavours such as mango, blueberries, or grape, these are all fresh fruits. I treat my girls to once a month mixed in with your growth mix ????🤞🏼 ... plenty of love from the uk

We knew what you meant.

What is the deciding factor for wattage?

[@RealPangeaReptile]

For fluorescent bulbs wattage is based on the size of the bulb, the larger the chamber the more energy it needs to excite all of the gas inside.

[@autumnmo1989]

Ive been buying those T8s for the last few years through your website and now they arent available

[@RealPangeaReptile]

T8 bulbs are unfortunately being phased out.

[@ja_j5857]

How many watts do you recommend for a 10.0 t5 40 gallon tank?

[@ja_j5857]

For my beardie

[@RealPangeaReptile]

Send a message to Nick through or website with photos of your cage and he'll help you find the right bulb.

[@annettevanessa4697]

Hello I’m using a t8 for my bearded dragons in a 40 gallon tank is that good

[@JosephMBoyer]

3:20 I think you meant to say "some of the downsides of T5" not "t8" good video tho.

[@RealPangeaReptile]
