    Should I add lighting to my FB-70? Should I get a vision instead?

    Hello.

    We just acquired an GHI male BP at eight months of age. We purchased a VE-100 (flex watt) with a FB70 (with water dish) and a white shelving unit (with back plate), medium black hide, and coco substrate.

    Reading about BP's and their nocturnal nature, we are unsure if we are giving enough light for our little guy to know the day cycle.

    Would the use of a top down light on a timer for the rack, or a vision cage style be a better choice? Would it really be needed given their nocturnal shy nature? I have read that they are usually not nuts about being a display pet.

    We do not intend to breed and the BP will remain solo in the enclosure always. Wife likes the Vision system but is that best for our BP?

    Thank you.
