Hello!

Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.

Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....

Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.

Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.

Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.

Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

jcvelez	Another Newbie with Temp and Light concerns. My friend and I purchased a pair of beautiful beardies, yearlings. They are both temporarily in a 40Brd tank. I'm concerned about the lighting and heating! If you look and the pictures you can see that I have both a basking lamp (Zoo Med; UVA) 75w and a Heat Glo also at 75w. I have placed a thermometer at both ends of the aquarium. The one at the warm end reads 87-88. Since they are on the piece of wood under the lamps is that okay for temperature requirements? I'm confused with the UVA/UVB light requirements. I know they are required for proper calcium and vitamin metabolism, but I've read on previous threads that the UVB is harmful to their eyes. Is that due to the type of bulb???? Could use your expertise! I've included a picture. PS the male is eating alot more than the female.
