Arcadia Lights!!

[Daybed]

New to the forum this is my 1st post aha Ok so I just got my arcadia lights couple of days ago and I couldn't be happier honestly these lights are fantastic and not to mention that Todd knows his products and is happy to answer all your questions. Completely Worth it. I have a 2 month old veiled and my little guy loves the lights haha. I had a mvl and there is a huge difference to me. NOT bashing mvl just my opinion. BY the way is it possible for over exposure to uva/uvb? just curious

I don't know the real answer to this as I'm new also but I am having a slight glitch with my male and it's possible that my 12% is too high for him and its possibly the reason the is always black and look exhausted. I'm going to try the 6% and see if it makes a difference. If it does then that answers your question.

Thanks, although I have not had any issues with the black or exhaustion under the lights.
Mostly he just moves around doing his thing or hangs out on his branch haha being a fat boy!

interesting... I'm setting up for a Jax and ordered the 12%. What makes you think UVB overexposure is to blame here? Let me know how he reacts to the 6%...

Well I can't put a finger on anything else and have gone over and over everything in his cage and seen hundreds of peoples setups and mine is no different ofthen than a lot of people use a 6%. A guy who was chatting to me on one of my posts had a similar problem and it was down to the uvb being too strong. I spoke to an arcadia expert and although he said its very unlikely it's down to the 12% but there are certain cases where you get the more sensitive reptile wether it be uvb heat or anything else for that matter

Todd does know his stuff.

 

[Daybed]

He absolutely does! Todd is by far the best customer service bar none. Just talk to him he's very helpful
