I think there has been some confusion here - Frank is not a current keeper at the zoo. He has not worked in the BZ's herpetology department in more than a decade (probably more like 15+ years), which I assume is why he continues to offer antiquated husbandry advice that dates back to this era.
His recommendations of low basking spots are not consistent or in line with husbandry techniques used by the zoo today.
