After getting a call from them stating the fluorescent fixture wouldnt work with a divider I asked about the led strips and was they work with the divider fine. However, they also offered to install two fluorescent lights so I could have one on each side and use the divider. This of course made the lighting $40 which is what the led option cost. That made it a no brainer for me and I went with the leds. Then to help push me over the fence even more I found the led option does not have any additional shipping charges as the fluorescent lights do so it actually was cheaper for me in the configuration I wanted.

So you can definitely get a fluorescent light it you still want one. Like you erebus45 I already have five cages with fluorescent lights so I ordered the same. After having to change that I also opted for the led option in the PVC Cage on order.

BTW Neal, I too like having a day and night light and in my snake room I achieve this with a floor lamp in the corner of the room with a red bulb. When the day lights go out the floor lamp kicks on a bit later so I can check on my collection at night and gives them more then pitch black to preform their night activities with. It would be great to have night lights in each cage but in the end price vs usefulness just didn't work for me so I went with a floor lamp.
I definitely understand that.

Yea, I just prefer to make it a bit more realistic instead of being pitch black have some sort of glow to their tank. I may figure something out with a light in the corner or something like you mentioned.
