Re: Inside enclosure for a sav

Junk the filter idea, just change the water every day, it will be fine.

For basking, stick with one spot, and use the chart I made, hot in the middle, gradually cooler working the way out.

Too much basking and it will get way hot inside the cage.

My 8x4 gets sweltering inside with just two 50 watt bulbs, I changed number three to a florescent to knock down the temps in there.

My basement is around 65 it's cold. Maybe one high basking spot, and some other high climbing areas? I want there to be lots to do
