Lighting & Heating

- Visible Light
- Bright LEDs like Jungle Dawn by Arcadia replicate natural sunlight.
- Fiji iguanas are drawn to vivid, natural-looking environments.
- Basking Bulbs
- Zoo Med 50W Splash-Proof bulbs are great for heat.
- Hang them inside the enclosure, allowing the iguana to bask within 10 inches to achieve a basking temp around 100°F (38°C).
- Deep Heat Projectors (Infrared-C)
- Optional, but beneficial in larger setups.
- Place above the cage to prevent burns.
- A 60W projector is effective if the iguana can approach within 15 inches of the heat source.
Outdoor Time:
If daytime temps reach 20°C (68°F) or higher, supervised outdoor time is very beneficial for overall health and well-being.
