Nightlight question...

mrs0508 Sep 16, 2003 01:30 PM

I was wondering if anyone can tell me if I can use just a regular blacklight light bulb in place of the red light bulb I've been using for night time heat. The room my terrarium is in is a little cool at night and I don't want my gold dusts to get too cold. The reason I want to change from the red is that fact that I don't like the red light...Any suggestions are always welcome!!!

Most regular blacklights dont put out much heat....They do sell black heat lights at most petshops though so you can get one for about 5$.
