For more info: www.bigappleherp.com SunForce Mercury Vapor Bulbs for reptiles output UVA and UVB with MicroWatts/CM2 that is as much as double that of competing brands. This output also enables our bulbs to penetrate further into your cage insuring proper UV for your reptile. SunForce Mercury Vapor bulbs produce UVB, UVA, LIGHT and HEAT and provide high levels of UVA and UVB making them one of the most effective methods of simulating natural sunlight and heat. This simulation not only provides ideal levels for optimum health but can actually have life saving benefits. www.bigappleherp.com
How hot does a powersun mercury vapour bulb get, 100 watt and 160 watt. would this be appropriate for my veiled chameleon in a aluminium cage 2x2x4 ft

Alright, thanks for the info. Also I want to ask you a question, I went to your site and I see you guys sell live animals and I’m interested in buying another lizard so is it possible that I can mix up lizards? Like i have a chinese water dragon, and if I buy an iguana or some lizard thats tropical and not aggressive would it be ok?

If your dragon is only going to be 5 inches from the SunForce bulb than you will probably be limited to a 70 watt to reduce the amount of UV exposure. If you can bring the bulb a few inches more away you can use a 100 watt so that the Heat and UV will be just right.

I have a 55 gallon tank, and my basking spot for my chinese water dragon is 5 inches from the top of the cage, What wattage should I get? And how high from my basking should it be for that wattage?
