    Hi all! I'm new here, but this community has already helped me so much with planning my first ever paludarium for an amphibian friend. I have a 30cmx30cmx60cm tank (so for Imperial measurement users, it's under 12 inches wide). It's by Exo Terra and so it has a rim and mesh lid. How on earth...

    Making my second viv and need to figure out the lighting. For my first viv (exo terra 12x12x18) I just went with compact top and a jungle dawn led - pretty straightforward.

I was also looking at...

    I have discussed this before with Dendro Dave in messages. He has recommended Ecoxotic E series. I am looking for LED light for my Exoterra setup that can penetrate over 24inches into my tank for plants. I am wanting a light that has adjustable spectrum and can "ramp up" making the lighting...

    The more I study this, the less I seem to understand. First, the good news: I've finally got the python scripting working properly for the lat/long network time based sunrise/sunset triggers of <<your south american location of choice>>.

    I just got new Grow and Glows from Todd at Lightyourreptiles.com! As you can see in the picture, they are awesome! Todd was an amazing seller to deal with and he bent over backwards to appease me with everything. I will be going back to Todd for all of my lighting needs. I would recommend him to...
