But, I generally have heavily planted vivs for my frogs or I provide them with many spaces to hide. I haven't had any issues, but certainly don't want to! I like the idea of these low watt, blue incandescents, but they don't stimulate plant growth, which will not work in a planted viv!
Is it because the wattage is too low? I had and incandescent daylight blue that stimulated plant growth. That's weird that those don't. That's what full spectrum light is for.
