Distance of bulb from lizard

[dan.hobley]

hey guys

just wondered, is there a certain distance that the bulb should be from Lex my BD?
its only ive built a new viv and the bulb seems to heat up one of the fake rock ledges underneath it so much i cant keep my hand on there longer than 10 seconds as it is too hot for me lol ouch.

obviously this is no use as Lex might burn his belly on it...

help me please

What type of bulb is it? You should really have it stated, and a digi thermometer should be used for the temps.

yeah digi on order and bulb is stated but that still doesnt stop the fake rock shelf underneath it (shining direct onto it) from heating up does it lol

the bulb is 60W spot bulb mate
