Zoo Med Reptile Hood Combo or ESU Reptile Tri Light Hood?

[Guest]

I was thinking about adding a moss pit, but am afraid it will attract bugs. Have you ever had an issue?

its on the side, not under

i have a moss pit in a corner caddy that keeps the humidity up as well as misting every few days

nope!
i soaked it in salt water and nuked it just a little bit.. maybe about 15 seconds
then i just put it in
i spray it with fresh water every other day to re moisten it

Good to know. I might just end up adding it to my tank after all. Thank you so much!

I know your not asking me, but I'll share my thoughts

My hood has dual ceramic heating ran through it. I have two plugs one for each bulb, which should come in handy if I need a lot of heat or if I want to switch bulbs to something else. I plan on using it in the winter though so its still in the box.

Hi Mama Crabs,

I ordered the Slider hood and it should be arriving sometime next week. Do you know if a tubular Exo-Terra night-glo (moon-glo) bulb will fit properly inside this hood?

Oh, I'm so glad that I can help someone. I'm still kinda new to this, but have done a ton of research and have asked even more questions, so it's fun to share what I've learned. Good luck with your tank!
