Yes it does have a mirrored reflector.There is cage screen between the light.the bulb is only a few months old.His basking area is under the heat bulbs but not the Reptisun.I do not have a solar meter
I am currently using a Reptisun 5.0 T5-HO 22 inch 24 watt.My 8 month old Panther doesn’t have much of a appetite but when I put him in the sun he eats like a pig.I am thinking this light isn’t strong enough? I could use some feedback?
Looking at your enclosure, he may be having trouble drinking.I recommend having more plants near the top of the cage and having a drip system falling on the plants?
