Fluker's Precision Calibrated Round Thermometer
Fluker's Precision-calibrated Thermometer Enables You To Monitor An Accurate Environmental Temperature Range (ETR) Within Your Pet's Enclosure Effectively To Promote Good Health And Longevity. Reptiles And Amphibians Are Dependent On Environmental Temperature To Regulate Their Body Temperature And Maintain Proper Health.Â
Amphibians
Most Amphibians Can Be Maintained In An ETR Of 70-76°F. They Do Not Tolerate Temperatures Above 82°F. They Should Experience A Minimal Night-time Temperature Drop Of 5-10°F.
Reptiles
An Appropriate ETR For Desert Reptiles Is Typically 85-95°F, Temperate Species 75-90°F And Tropical Species 80-90°F. Free Movement Between The Warm And Cool Sides Of Their Enclosures Is Essential. Reptiles Should Experience A Minimal Night-time Drop Of 5-10°F.
Directions
Place The Thermometer On The "warm" Side (basking Area) Of The Enclosure For 30 Minutes And Compare The Reading With The Specific Needs Of Your Pet. If The Area Is Too Cool, Use A Higher-wattage Bulb. If Too Hot, Substitute A Lower-wattage Bulb. After Establishing The Proper Temperature For The "warm" Side, Move Thermometer To The "cool" Side Of The Enclosure For 30 Minutes And Record. Establish An Appropriate Enclosure. Check The ETR Regularly.
