Thanks!

I put soem dirt in there last night, gonna add more today

Question though... I have two heat lights running and its only holding the basking spot at 100 - 115F (one bulb im assuming is 200 watts, the other is 100 watts)

How can i bump it up?

I am thinking about replacing the 200 watt with a 200 watt CHE. Could it be that the bulb is so old that its not giving out its max heat?

What do you guys think? will replacing the old 200 watt with a brand new CHE bump it up to 120 - 130F or should i just buy a new dome and light altogether?

Thanks
