Thats what I was afraid of:( Theres a bit of extra space, so maybe the 15 inch tube would fit in, bit it would mean messing the whole thing up, drilling new holes etc, its a tall glass terrarium and to be frank I am a little scared to do any major changes, I was hoping I could solve it more...
Hi guys,
I just got a brand new terrarium for my chameleon and I am a little bit disappointed to find out that it has an installation for an UVB fluorescent tube which is 34cm (around 13.4 inches) long. I am measuring it completely including the sockets, its a T8 type. I have been searching...
Hi,
I have a 6 months old male panther chameleon set in a glass terrarium about 50x50x60cm in size. Recently (about 2 months ago) he started to look around more and at the moment he spends much of the day looking through the glass at close distance and trying to "get through" or climb on the...

Hi guys,
I bought this pardal at a reptile show a week ago and was told by the vendor (who otherwise didnt seem very competent) that its probably male. After reading more about them I suspect its rather a female: "he" doesnt seem to have any "bulge" on his tail and his colours are mostly...
At a recommendation I bought this UV bulb: Exo Terra Reptile UVB 200; I was told by the clerk at the pet shop that this one serves both as a heat source and as a UVB lamp, which is something I am looking for as I would like to combine both in one if possible. But upon installing it I observed it...
