Our blue belly fence post lizard river skink. Aka my uvb/led/cfl experiment. My boys rescued it out of a swimming pool and it stayed with us all day, we took it home and started feeding it. It’s tripled in size, and is getting tame to me a little, normally if it sees movement it splits. It cracks me up when it does pushups
put a succulent and some red lettuce, had a volunteer plant to, not sure yet what it is. There’s crickets, sow bugs, centipedes, fruit flies, and random bugs we find lol. They all work together and keeps the cage floor really clean, not many dead bugs or plant leaves, everything gets eaten.
Interesting the plants only grow towards the mercury vapor bulb if the led is off. The mercury vapor is 125 watt, the led is 12w. This led works better for the lettuce than all the other bulbs I’ve tried, different kinds of led, incandescent, different cfl, all different spectrums etc. I can’t quite understand the balance but if it’s only one or the other it just doesn’t get the same color and thickness, the uvb and led together get it done.
Interesting uvb is for lizards used to real sunshine and need it to prevent loss of bone DENSITY, makes me want to put one in flower tent. One of everything made, need a much larger tent for one of everything............
