    Default Re: What wattage lightbulb should I use?

    Don't use the flat bulb, which I imagine is a basking bulb; horned frogs don't really bask like lizards, so you want something that will be gentle and not intense. Use a ceramic heat emitter, it's black and made of ceramic, produces no light. 77f by day is okay though, I really think it might be the light itself and not the temperatures. Ceramic or heat mat all the way for albinos, as they produce no light at all. The enclosure can then be placed in a moderately bright room, so it can then tell the difference between night and day.
