Default lighting for emersed crypts & anubais

How much light is appropriate for emersed crypts and anubais? I have an exo terra 4 cfl unit. The fixture supports up to 4- 26 watt cfls. I am currently using two 26 watt cfl bulbs in the center and two 13 watt
bulbs on the end. Is this too much - not enough - any suggestions.

or is dimmer better with crypts/anubais
