Okay so I replaced the small light strip on my 135 to a 6ft light strip. It came with 2 ultra sun 6500k bulbs. Now my endlicheri is freaking out. I have lots of caves but it likes to hang out in the open. Is my light too bright for my endlicheri? I'm thinking of switching it to colormax bulbs. Would that be a better choice? Thanks

I use three shop lights with the twisty CFL bulbs. Cost me 30 dollars and I've never had to replace bulbs for the past 2 years.

They are relatively dim lights as well. I think your endli just needs some time to adjust.
 
I'll wait a few weeks to see if it settles down. If not then I'll have to change the bulbs to a lower wattage.
