I am using an old 55 gal fish tank as my viv and I am currently using the flouro fixture that came with it to provide the UVB. The problem is this lamp is a T12 fixture and all of the bulbs on the market that are designed for reptiles are T8. I currently have a bulb designed for home use that has the highest UVB output I could find, but I don't have a meter so I dont know exactly what it is putting out. I talked to a vet who specializes in exotics and he said my current set up was fine as long as I let him outside to get real UVB for 10 min or so almost everyday. My question is there a way to either convert my fixture to T8 easily, or is there a better solution? Does someone know where I can purchase a T12 48" bulb at a reasonable price? This is my current set up. Sorry its a tad blury.
Thanks!
