    What’s your max temp?

    What’s the highest temperature that you are 'ok' with having?
    For example my minimum temp is 78f and my max temp is 90f, but if I see the temperature is at 95f, then I’d be ok with it.

    In general? My highest temp is about 100F for my bearded dragon when he was a juvie. I do not like going above that, so as much as I would like a red ackie, I'm too scared to have a hot spot of over 120F. The lowest is 75F.

    I would immediately correct any surface temperature that goes above 93F in my BP enclosure, and any ambient temperature over 84F.

    For my BPs I never let it go above 90. I aim for a hotspot of 88, I'm fine with 89, 90 is pushing it.

    BP's 88-90 in the warmer months, 90-92 over the winter because the ambient temp in the house does drop a bit.
