I've finally gotten the tank all set. All I need to do is buy a red night time bulb for some added heat. I decided to make my lighting mostly custom because of how much the temps change in my house from day to day. Usually when I work 7-7 my AC is turned off in the morning. Since my room is upstairs, in a cape, it gets really hot. That means that the enclosure may be too hot for the tegu. I have my basking light on a dimmer switch with a 90 watt bulb. I also have the UVB light on the same switch. I can dim it down to nothing and the UVB stays on until the dimmer is clicked off. The night light is on a seperate switch.
Well, here's pictures. There will be another hide, and this dishes in there were both going to be for water, but I'm just going to find a nice 4x8 shallow dish for him, instead. Also, the blue looking bulb is going to be the night time bulb, I just need to buy a new one, haha.
Anyone see anything wrong with this setup? I hope it'll be good for a couple months anyway. It's ashame he wont use up any vertical space, but It'll work for now.
Enjoy,
Nick
