Light bulb?

[Mantid Z.]

I have a question will a 15watt lightbulb be good for a Pseudocreobotra wahlbergi and is there any risk of the light making the fabric catch on fire!

A 15 watt heat lamp bulb should be fine. As long as the bulb is not closer than 2 or 3 inches to the fabric, you should have no problems with fire.

First off, light doesn't have anything to do with fire starting. Heat does though. And second, 15W is relatively low in the pet heating spectrum. 2-3 inches is more than enough.

He meant the heat lamp or heat light, some people call lamps 'lights' sometimes, I know that I do! Thanks for your input!
