Where are u located? If you look back thru the posts, I put up links to both the bulb and fixtures I use in my 4x2x2 tanks I custom made. And the cheapest I could find if you're in the USA.

Oh sorry, thanks. Ya I'm in NH, (GOOD 'OL) USA

Shoot, I noticed your post was for the reptisun. I was thinking I'd go with the acadia. Anybody familiar with this site?

However I'm still not sure what the best fixture would be for this bulb. Or if there's a better reflector than what would come with whatever fixture I might get.

You can still use the sun blaster fixture with the bulb that you linked in your last post. I'm pretty sure the one I linked in a previous post has the reflector. I have 2 of them currently. Just be careful with not touching the reflector as they fingerprint very easily, not that its a big deal to clean off. Maybe I'm too ocd about mine being spotless. Lol

Thank you. I was also wondering, how close does the arcadia bulb need to be?

I know the affairs bulbs are a touch stronger than the reptisun bulbs. I run my reptisuns 12 inches from the basking spot. Arcadias could be fun at this distance or at about 14 inches lrobably. Let's see if we can get someone who runs the Arcadias to chime in on Distance.

I'm sorry, but I'm trying to place my order tonight since it's cyber Monday. I wanted the arcadia 14% T5 and the sunblaster for a fixture. But I can't find them both on the same sight. Anybody have suggestions?
