    Default Lighting

    Hey guys, Kevin here.

    As you all know my vivarium is finished (18x18x24).
    I am looking for your guys opinion on lighting for
    darts. I bought the zoomed lighting fixture which as slots
    for two bulbs. I bought two 6700k full day light
    spectrum florescent for each of the slots.

    Do you guys think there will be sufficient lighting
    from just one of the bulbs? It seems that much of the
    humidity is evaporating from the heat coming off of
    the bulbs. As well as the top of the tank seems to
    dry out by the next misting. Is this normal?

    The humidity gauge i bought was **** so i threw
    it out. Ill be picking up a new digital one at my next
    pay check. For those that are wondering i have indeed
    covered about 90% of the top with acrylic. Although,
    i will be replacing the acrylic with glass shortly.

    There are no frogs in the tank so i do not have to worry
    about fooling around in there with a bunch of frogs bouncing
    around lol.

    Any feedback with be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    -Kevin
