I have another question I forgot to ask if you all dont mind....

I have a 150 watt bulb for daytime warmth, and a 75 watt red bulb for noght time warmth.

my question is, how important is it to keep the day/night on a strict schedule?

basically, I turn on the red bulb when I go to bed, or when I remember to do so if I am having one of those nights ai cant sleep.

do they need, for example, 12 hours of "daylight" and 12 hours of "night", like on a strict schedule, or is it not that big of a deal if you forget every so often?
