Yet another bulb question.

[Kratoskeeper]

Ok so i used to use a solar glo for my last beardie and it seemed to work pretty well. I am looking for a new bulb again and wondering if there is a better mvb? Or is the reptisun much better? Any help is appreciated.

In my old 55 gallon i used a 160 watt SunForce MVB from bigappleherp.com and it worked very well for me. I now have a 4x2x2 with a 36 in repti-sun 10.0. I honestly can say i have noticed a big difference in my beardy but i have peace of mind with the repti-sun because of all the good things you hear from everyone here. If you would ask me i would say go with the Repti-sun.

Here is a good link that was given to me when I had questions of MVB vs reptisun/arcadia.
It seems that the MVB's (at least the ones that have been tested) aren't putting out nearly the UV that was thought.
I'd go w/ the tube bulbs.
