[QUOTE="Claudiusx, post: 1894693, member: 31715"] Fair enough, I will disagree on that, but thats the beauty of discussion. :) IMO, T5's add some risk that T8's might not. Although I suppose you could considers T8's to provide the risk of potentially under providing UV, T5's have the opposite problem. I do want to get your opinion on the fact that we used t8's for decades, even on top of our screens. Since we weren't really seeing much MBD if the rest of the husbandry was up to par, would this not imply that the levels of UV we were providing back then were suitable? I guess I'm assuming that everyone will answer this question the same as me so I will ask you just to get your thought. Is it not better to provide just enough UV, as opposed to more than enough. Considering the damaging effects of UV exposure? I guess depending on how you feel about that question, will determine how you feel about your uvb setups. For what it's worth, I use t5's without reflectors, mounted to the tops of my custom enclosures. I'm really not as anti T5 as I seem. I'm anti my way or the highway. :mrgreen: -Brandon [/QUOTE]
