100w powersun
from Samsung Galaxy S3
18 is fine. http://zoomed.com/Library/ProductDBFiles/UVB-Reach.pdfwhat would be a proper distance from the basking spot? I was reading up and said around 18 inches or so, just want to be sure.
It completely depends on the ambient conditions. If room temperature is cooler, the bulb should be closer. Warmer temperatures and the bulb won't need to be as close.
So wit a 95 hot side how far away would u put a 160w I would love the info because Godzilla still won't bask under the uvb amd its about 17-20" away from surfaceIt will, but again those will vary with ambient conditions. You'll get greater UVB intensity the closer the bulb is to the tegu. You'll also get greater thermal intensity and risk burning your tegu. Humidity, atmospheric pressure, several other factors can minimally impact the UVB. The main thing you want to be concerned with is the temperature your tegu will experience from the bulb, and whether the tegu can come in contact with the bulb.

plan on getting a baby b/w tegu and had a question on what PowerSun bulb i should get. They say you shouldn't use a dimmer on them so i was wondering if anyone has used them with a 40 gallon breeder tank and what wattage was used for a perfect basking temp.
Thanks
