[QUOTE="Claudiusx, post: 1897051, member: 31715"] Arcadias new lighting guidelines: [GALLERY=media, 29239][/GALLERY] They do not base their recommendations anymore on mW uv, but instead on UVI, as is becoming the norm with almost all other companies. Additionally, the updated chart differs from the old chart in one main aspect, providing 0 UVI at a point in the enclosure. Which wasn't a suggestion in the first chart. All in all, I like their new recommendations much better. Basking UVI is higher than I typically would like, but it's acceptable because they are stressing the importance of a gradient down to 0, which is something that hasn't been stressed enough here. The updated recommendation is 30-45cm for the 12%, as shown in their chart. I'm sure it's because they realized that in some tanks 30cm won't allow a gradient down to 0 UVI in the cool zone. -Brandon [/QUOTE]
