Yeah T5 w/reflector is 12-14''. The MVB distance depends on the brand and wattage - it can vary quite a bit between them. MVB quality can vary quite a bit too. I prefer using a T5 for the main tank so I can control UVB and heat separately while I use MVBs as portable basking spots around the house and for travel - they're great for that.

A problem may be that your vets are also at the top of the viv. The "better design" is typically to put "intake" vents toward the bottom of the viv and "exhaust" vents toward the top. That creates a little more natural convection.
