    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I was wondering if anyone was using CFL Light Bulbs for lighting any cages currently I use Normal Bulbs and my electricity usage is outrageous, So I'm trying to cut it down some by thinking about using these "energy efficient" bulbs. Do they put off heat? Link is below to bulbs im looking at

You could try an undertank heater or a ceramic fixture, but I don't honestly know how much less electricity they'd use. You definitely can't get enough with CFL's.
