This is probably not the place for it, but I haven't found a good reptile forum yet and I know there's a few of ya'll that keep them. I need to reach 130º for a basking spot for my monitor lizard, with an 80º ambient temp on the cool side..what light would you suggest? I see people using spot lights for the basking area..is this safe? What kind of safety features are available? Could a lizard climb to the top of a retes stack to bask, and get too close to the light, and get burned? Btw the monitor won't be here for another week or so, I just want everything perfect when he arrives. Its a juvie so I'm starting him out in a 75 gallon glass tank, until I get his adult enclosure built. Or buy one..
