Extra lighting?

[NeonXtacy]

Hey all!


I've been wanting to get some extra lighting in my beardies tank.

I saw this

https://www.growlights.ca/growlights/t5-ho-grow-lights/2-foot-24w-t5-ho/fusion-bright-2x2-48w-t5-ho-kit.html

I figure it wouls be great to put my Arcadia uvb and maybe get the 2700k bulb that comes with the fixture for extra lighting?

I was torn between that or the Reptisun Led plus UVB fixture?

I'm in need of a new fixture anyways.

What are your thoughts?

Thank you .

I would go with th 6500 bulbs then replace one bulb with the reptisun 10.0 or arcadia 12 tube. You dont want to use the 2700 spectrum as it would have a tint to it and beardies need the bright white light, no color.

If you haven't chosen yet, go with the T5 multi socket lamp in the 6500k bulb.

LED are not quite ready for prime time and can have a poor color to them for dragons, even if they look white to us. Some LEDs have a good spectrum,zip but I wouldn't trust zoomed to use expensive LEDs....

Florecent lights have the same problem, but to a lesser extent.
