Hey everyone! I just had a quick question; as I have a large 4 foot enclosure that's outfitted with a red heat light, and a florescent display light. I've been turning the florescent off at night, but leaving the red light on, so that there's always a warm side to the enclosure.
I just wondered if I ought to be turning the red light off as well, or not. As always, all input is appreciated!

Re: Question about tank lighting
Do you also offer a basking light?
Skinks don't prefer an ambient warm area like reptiles that live in tropical zones where it is never gets below 80' but like a basking light where it gets close to 100' and they can soak up the sun, especially the Australian species
