We have light!!! ok maybe not... lol
so heres the situation: my pacman is in a ten gallon tank and i live in ct its kinda cold. i have an 8 whatt heating pad on the back side of the tank, hoever it doesnt heat enough. so i moved the pacman down stairs. i also put backing around three sides of the tank. by down stairs i mean basement its warm down there. well i want the pacman up stairs to enjoy. also the pacman needs 12 hrs light 12 hrs dark. i when and picked up a light a bulb and a dimmer switch, however they didnt have a dimmer switch. they had a temperature setter. you plug the light/ heat source into it and it moderates the temp for yopu. I picked up a red bulb, to me it was the best i seen at petco (which sucks around me by the way). i moved the pacman upstairs. she seems to bedoing well. the temp is staying right and thwe bulb turns on and off to acomodate 78-82 degrees in the tank. i know its working. she also has the light from the living room in the day as actaul light. so is this set up safe for my pacman???? she doesnt stay buried and ive seen her safely move away from the light. then back into it. i just dont want to dry her out burn her or hurt her eyes. so please give oppinions. i can return and get something different... thank you... here are the pics
