Distance from UVB?

[TheBeard9789]

From my UVB light to the bottom of the enclosure is 15" but when you add a half hide and decor to sit on it's 10"- 12" from the UVB. Just wanted to make sure 10"-15" is safe for them it was originally 15"-20" from bottom to the light which is why I dropped it

It is a Arcadia T5 13% dessert tube not coil/bulb it goes over half the enclosure
Vet suggested to lower it down

You want it 12-15 inches from the basking decor piece

From the half log it's 13"-15"

I'm currently getting some more decor that'll make me change the distance a bit

Is it in the tank ?

Yup it would be filtered if it was on top of the enclosure so placing it inside was the only option
