Does someone know what the best bulb is? I cannot find many 25w bulbs online with great reveiws. I did research, and 25w bulbs are best.

Hello Everyone, I have had my leopard gecko, Chauncey, for about two years, and I have had the same heat mat the entire time. I have a thermostat hooked up to it to control the temperature and keep it at 89 degrees F. However, lately it has not been getting above 84 which I know is too cold...

Hello, I've had two female leopard geckos for almost 6 months now. A mother & daughter; Instagram And our viv looks a bit like this; Instagram I'm on here looking for some advice on heat lamps as I don't think my heat mat alone is sufficient.

Hello! So after researching and purchasing everything necessary since February, I went to a reptile expo this past weekend and am now the proud owner of a juvenile Crestie! Hes gorgeous :3 . He's a good size, and even though hes not eating the respashy I purchased, he did eat a few crickets...

So I recently moved to a new place and now my cresti and I live in a basement, the last place we lived I was able to use a florescent light bulb to light the cage so he had a night and day, but I didn't need worry about heat ever as the ambient temp was sufficient. Now in the new place, the...
