Stay away from the compacts though, they have been known to cause eye problems in lizards. The tube lights are safe to use.

Thanks everyone, I was going to buy one before but my anole ran away (don’t worry he got outside). He was wild in the first place anyway.I now have two green anoles and one brown anole.But anyway, thanks for the information, I’ll definitely considerate it.

From what I have researched and heard about, the compacts produce a type of radiation that destroys eye cells. You can Google it to get all the details.
