Because I can't turn it off using the timer.

Well I have to plug in every morning now for the mistking to work and plug it off. Josh's frogs have the cheapest timer for now. I will keep trying to let the timer dry out for the time being. =/

I'm gonna share my experience with silkworms. It takes way too much g effort or maybe I'm just doing it wrong. I bought about 100 eggs, most of them hatched. I fed them fresh mulberry leaves twice a day, in the morning and at night and it takes time to remove them from the old dried leaves. In...

So I plug it back in. It's working like before! Thanks guys! Edit: I spoke too soon. The timer froze at the manual "on" part and whatever button I press won't change anything.

I went to the vet in the late afternoon though and reached home at night. So he already ate in the morning.

I will do that. Thanks for all the advice and suggestions. Look on the bright side, I have a mini cham. Oh btw he didn't eat any bsfl today. I wonder if it's because I threw too many crickets and he prefers the crickets over the bsfl.

Yes he's inside. I have to go to work in the morning 8am so I can't really let him out into the sun. I think the T5 5.0 is the best option at the moment. As for the slow growth, I guess it can't be helped.

South East Asia near the equator, the UVI here is crazy high, 8-11. So I'll use the 5.0 first for now?

So if someone has a used T5ho 10.0 and has only switch it on daily for 2 weeks at about 11 months ago, it's now useless? To the rest of you, thanks for all of the advice. Now I have a problem. Zoo med and Arcadia are not available locally. I can get it on eBay but it takes about two to three...

I have a question. How does a uvb bulb lose its effectiveness? Through long usage? Or will it start to lose effectiveness once it's being used for the first time regardless of how often you switch it on?

No x-ray, she said it won't be accurate and hard to tell because his bones are too thin/skinny. She said his lips area feels a little rubbery to the touch and that's a sign of MBD.

Update: No signs of parasite eggs are found in his stool. No sign of any other problems found while the vet is examining him. Except that his tail and his lips area has a slight sign of MBD. She suggested to put him in a smaller enclosure or increase the UVB. I guess T8 5.0 really isn't enough...

Great news! Just 3 hrs before the appointment, I was trying again to search through the foliage for any signs of poop, expecting only to see urates. Then I saw it! A cluster of brownish black and white on one of the leaves of my begonia rex. =) I then extract it and put it in a tiny container...

It's a mini tree Spinosaurus.

As an Asian, I feel embarrassed that I didn't thought of that. I just submerged the timer in a container of rice. Hopefully it will be fine.

It's my mistake, I accidentally spilled water when I was refilling my reservoir bucket. And the water hit the Mistking timer. At first the led lights went crazy and jumbled. Then I try switching the power off and on, the timer screen went black screen. I bought it on Dec 2018, not sure if the...

When cleaning roach bins, always do it in your toilet so they can't escape and hide. When you are transferring them to feed your pet, put a small container in your bin, shake some roaches into the container. Then proceed to feed your pet using a feeder cup or free range. Always prepare to...

Update: so I counted the bsfl and the superworms, he did not eat a single superworm but took 8 bsfl. I read that veiled chameleons are in Ferguson zone 3. And I saw that for zoo med, only reptisun T8 10.0 and T5 5.0 is in the zone 3 range at 8". T5 10.0 on the other hand is between 3 and 4 at 8".

I saw the description for the Arcadia bulb, it says 550m, which is almost 22 inch. My hood is 24 inch. Are they compatible?

Update: So I got the bsfl and small super worms. The super worms turn out to be slightly larger than the standard mealworms. So anyway I threw 20 bsfl and 10 super worms. I also threw like a dozen crickets to attract his attention to the feeder cup. And I went to work, I will see the results...
