Habitat - Indoor :: Heating Lamp

[tara.u]

I have a 30 gallon tank and a 5 inch red eared slider. I'm looking to get a new heating lamp and would like suggestions or recommendations. I've been using the bulbs one would get at a pet store solely for turtles (100 watts). I already have a light fixture. And another one for the UVB bulb.

I use a 50 watt par30 halogen light (the TurtleTuff is similar to it). Some people simply use regular incandescents.

tara, I use the same ones you use, only sometimes they have a picture of a lizzard or snale on the packaging. I just make sure that it says something like for "tropical reptiles" not arid or desert reptiles
