i found a product from exo terra call scorpion light, they said that it produce "soft uv light" and just consume 2W, is it safe for my scorpions if i use it for about 30 mins per day?
Infrared bulbs are best but if your ambient air temperature is already on the warm side I would suggest attaching it to a rheostat or dimmer and monitoring the temps.so if i want to view my scorps at night without disturbing them, what light should i use?
So i just need to attach an infrared bulbs to a rheostat and place it on top of my terrarium?Infrared bulbs are best but if your ambient air temperature is already on the warm side I would suggest attaching it to a rheostat or dimmer and monitoring the temps.
UV, as was mentioned already is bad for them but they aren't going to die if used occasionally or for maintenance purposes. I use a blacklight flashlight while doing maintenance in my C. sculpturatus community for my safety. In my single specimen scorpion vivs it's unnecessary.
Exo Terra says, "The Scorpion Light provides a soft ultraviolet light, similar to the UV-rays reflected by the moon’s surface." The light doesn't generate enough UV to harm your scorpion. Go ahead and buy it.So i just need to attach an infrared bulbs to a rheostat and place it on top of my terrarium?
Have you ever try this product? i haven't seen any pictures from anyone about this lightExo Terra says, "The Scorpion Light provides a soft ultraviolet light, similar to the UV-rays reflected by the moon’s surface." The light doesn't generate enough UV to harm your scorpion. Go ahead and buy it.
Yup, that's my plan. I just ask everyone about that product because of uv light's harm to my scorpsI recommend Infrared bulbs, they do not harm or disturb your specimen.
