The heat lamp should emit effectively NO light at all if it is on at night. The moonlight ones are fine.

You don't need neodymium either, get a regular basking bulb.

Get two tight fitting hides, on for each side of the cage.

Put all the lights and heater on the warm side of the cage.

The night glo moonlight lamp would be good for night, and can be left on in the day or not depending on the wattages of your daylight bulb, how warm the room is, and how much insulation your particular cage provides, so that you achieve the temps you want.

You might need to play around with a few different wattages of bulbs before you achieve the right temps.

You need a night drop.
