    Default Heat Bulb Exploded

    When I was misting my tank my exo terra 75 watt heat bulb exploded that I got only two days ago. Is this a common occurance? Please help and maybe tell how to avoid this because I don't want to keep getting bulbs and I don't want to scare my frogs.

    It was the cold water contacting the hot glass that made it explode. Either spray away from the bulb, or move the bulb. Personally, I don't use heat bulbs with frogs anyway
