yeah! so temps are the problem, that should be realitivly easy to fix.
If I turn off the other light(oh, and I looked on the box of my MV bulb and it is 160 watts) then the hot temp is 99, As far as I can tell thats the closest he can get to the bulb, which is almost exactally 18inches from the bulb. And he only goes there sometimes. His fav. place to bask is about 25 inches from the bulb.

His cool temps, with out the house bulb are aound 86, insidehis cave its a bit cooler. Will this work?
his cage is 2.5 ft. tall with 4' by 2' floor space. My amazing Dad made the whole cage. It open at the to(wich makes it a bit difficult to clean, but I have discovered that since I can fit inside the cage cleaning has become easier)It is all wood with a glass front and half of the top is glass. Maybe I can get a picture, I'll try.

The reasoin I use MVB is because there is a box that sits ontop of the cage and inside are two places to screw in light bulbs. So I can't buy the long tube bulbs, there is no where to put them. Does that make sense?

So, I'll go with the new temps and see how things go, unless there are any objections...?

Thanks a million HH and BDlvr, from me and Ramses!
