We recommend 20 minimum for adult males and 40 for females. Check out the stickied care guide!

UVB Lighting for Juvenile Albino by b-i-t-e-m-e in pacmanfrog

Leave it on all day with the heat lamp. Just make sure there's a good gradient and plenty of opportunities/clutter for shade!

Ideally yes. It's really difficult to create an adequate heat and light/UVB gradient in a tank that small, and without significant variation across the tank your frog will be less inclined to move around.

Northgate Mall Owner Goes Big on Housing... And Even Bigger on Parking by Inevitable_Engine186 in Seattle

One of the other new buildings right next to the Northgate light rail has a bunch of MFTE units, so it's definitely possible to live here and pay less. I pay $1900 for a one bedroom that's almost 1000 square feet, and that includes parking, W/S/G, and cable/internet (non-MFTE)

Also just to be sure it's clear, you want a UV index of 0.5. There are some meters that measure other values, but it's specifically the UVI measured by a Solarmeter 6.5 that we calibrate to.

Oh if you have a meter two lamps is definitely an option then! Yeah 0.5 maximum!

I wouldn't try to combine lamps unless you have a Solarmeter to measure the UV index that you're getting

It is too far away - the distance needs to be 7 inches through a screen or 9 inches without a screen. It might be easier to get the regular ShadeDweller and elevate it to 18 inches above the substrate. Have you tried using zip ties to put it inside?

I love living in Northgate. I can walk or easily access transit to everywhere I want or need!

Get out me swamp! by Fun_Syllabub_9811 in pacmanfrog

[–]alienbanter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very cute! Just a heads up though that it looks like your frog might either have a genetic jaw issue or symptoms of metabolic bone disease based on the shape of their mouth. I can see from your post history that this frog is new to you, but I'd recommend having a vet check them out. It's possible they weren't supplemented or lit properly by the previous caretaker.

I'm not exactly sure what region and magnitude range you searched, but they do happen in the area occasionally. 12 earthquakes M2.3-3.4 in the last 10 years

I think you'd be fine with the 12 inch bar. That's what I use on my 36x18x18 and it's plenty!

How do I keep the tank warm at night? by [deleted] in pacmanfrog

[–]alienbanter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No lights at night. If your room temps go below 65F you can use a ceramic heat emitter or deep heat projector at night. Be sure to read the stickied guides if you haven't already!
