UVB choices

[AndyZ]

Hello all. Upgrading our girl from a 40gal to 120gal enclosure.

I have a reptizoo HO-T5 UVB 10% 39W
OR

Arcadia 12% 24W

Just curious which would be better and IF I’m correct on heights about 14-18” from her basking spot?

Thank you!

The Arcadia is a way better product- the Repti Zoo bulb is not very good and its a 10% not really good-- - the fixture might be ok to use but I would go w / the Arcadia -- distance inside the tank 12-15 inches and bulb should be changed out in approx 10-11 months--

Went with Arcadia. It’s roughly 12”. She can get closer if she chooses or further?
