As long as it dpesnt heat the terrarium up, probably no.

Bright light in the daylight range is best for performance.

Any light will work so long as it does not cause too much heat, you should be golden.

Fluorescent lights work great, and they don't generate very much heat.

Check the specs for color temperature -- you want something between 5000K and 6500K.

So I take it the 4500k range is not good, can it hurt performance?

This was unlike the story
it was written to be
I was riding its back
when it used to ride me.

And we were galloping manic
to the mouth of the source
we were swallowing panic
in the face of its force.
