attaching lights inside enclosure

Posted by badgrrl on December 21, 2001 at 23:14:48:

Hi all!
It's been awhile since I've posted but things have been going pretty well. gizmo's eating like a horse now and has grown quite a bit. But I (finally) got her(him) a larger cage and I'm having trouble figuring out how to get the heat lights so they're close enough to her. I got one of the reptarium-type tall cages with the nylon screening all the way around and the pull-out tray at the bottom that the substrate sits on. The problem is that there aren't any actual fixtures inside the cage for the lights and I was worried that the heat lamp especially might melt the nylon. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to rig up the lights so they're inside the cage or should I set them on top or what? I've seen all you guys's cage pictures and I couldn't tell how the lights were attached. Thanks! (The cage dimensions are 29 1/2" x 29 1/2" x 72")
