Thoughts on lighting?

Just wanted someones opinion on whether I should get this light or not. I currently have a Reptisun 10.0 t5 HO, but I've heard this is better? Thanks

Hello,

Sure, the Arcadia D3 12% T5 tube bulb is excellent, top of the line UVB light. We have been
using them for quite awhile now & a lot of other people here on the forum do as well. They
are very good lights.
What sized tank do you have currently?

What size t5 fixture should I use for a 4x2x2? A 36 inch or 24 inch ?

I just put a 24" in 4x2x2 custom tank i built. Got the reptisun t5 10.0 bulb in it and 12" away from the basking platform. Thinking of pulling the platform and replacing it with a nice twisty looking root ball/ climbing branch so my girl can get closer or further away if she so desires.

Working on getting my uv sensor reading the way I'd like to, so I can measure the output in the current setup. My uv sensor is an arduino unit.
