adult cage lighting???

[naich]

so my 4 by 2 by 2 by lll is in the mail. i already have a single light fixture with a repti sun 5.0 in it....all linier... so heres the question

should i buy a double light fixture and put a 10.0 in there with a plant growth light...or another 5.0 with a plant light???

i want to use the 10.0 and plant light combo....but im worried it may be too much uvb out put...his cage will have a pothos/ficus/umbrella/at least 10 feet of vines and mabey another ficus...so theres planty of places to get away from the uvb out put if it gets too intense...

also where can i find the cheapest and easiest fixture....like what store...any brand names would be cool

I wud stick with the 5.o setup because it is the safest way to not over expose your chameleon.
what kind of fixture do you need? like a tube light or basking bulb?

for the tube...i want to include the plant light that way the plants grow quicker and that equals more hiding spots and that equals less stress...

a plant light will work. and a tube ligght fixture you can get almost anywhere like home depot but the prices are the same as the ones on llreptile.com, i would definetly look there.
