TN,
so you do not believe in the set up shown, that the animals will posess enough sense to move out of the sun in front of the window?
Actually, I think that the replacement of the lower pane with a less uv filtering arcrylic would be the way to go (season permitting)
The ambient temp of the habitat is not the danger here Todd. Its the temp at a specific location caused by sunlight being refracted through glass. When light travels from one density to another it bends, so to speak. Glass is not a perfectly flat surface and sunlight can be concentrated. Similar to a magnifyling glass. If the lizard does not move, it is fried. The glass filters out most light above the visible spectrum but can refract visible light and concentrate it. Hope this helps.
