    I've not done any measurements or the light intensity in my viv, but I wonder..... though it looks very high when inside my normally lit home, is it really enough for plants such as garden vegetables that typically want lots of sun.

    I've half-heartedly tried lettuce from seed a couple times and it never did anything. Not sure if lighting was the issue or some of the "renegade" crickets in there that ate it as soon as it sprouted or while still seed. It doesn't stop me from trying though if it's got a leaf structure that is interesting, I like to give it a try.

    I could increase the lighting intensity, but I'm under the impression that my FBT's don't like intense light and it is bad for their eyes. Don't know where I got that, but I've not seen any useful information about what is too much or too little light for them.

    Yeah that's why things like pothos, ivy and wandering jew are typically used. They do fine in dim light.
