Hey all, i was just wondering which is the best mercury vapour bulb? i have been told they are better for tortoises than a UV strip and heat lamp

I have a lucky reptile bright control pro 50w but isnt this a metal halide?

cheers all, yeah i really like arcadia and have 2 of their 12% t5 UVB strips, i have a solarmeter 6.2 to test the strength and must say they are very impressive although nothing competes to natural sunlight on a good day (i guess its hard for companies to do this) so we have to use what is closest and at the moment that is arcadia

going off that article it suggests a strip would be better as it would cover more of the viv ?
