do you measure the uv with a solarmetre? what kind of turtle do you have?

Out of sheer curiosity...why won't more ppl post what brand of mvb or neon tube they use?

Thank you :)

what brand mvb? megaray, sunglo, arcadia, something else?

I see it measure mW/m2...let me do the math on that... 15uW/cm2=150mW/m2

So when you measure with it does it not give the result in uW/cm2?

Sorry I made a mistake from 30 cm my solarmeter mesures 15 uW/cm2...so 15uW/cm2*28.26cm2= 423.9uW

So my turtle has pi*r*r(surface of my 6 cm turtle) 3x3x3.14=28,26 cm2....and that means 30uW/cm2*28,26cm2=847.8uW ....is that too much?

My turtle YBS has 6cm SCL.

So if I buy a solar metre, say 6.2, that measures in uW/cm2 ...I think, so if it reads 30 uW/cm2 from 30 cm it means it's ok, right? My turtle has 6 cm...what else should I check for...

Oh my...

https://www.sera.de/en/products/in_category/t-8-401/product/sera-terra-uv-t8.html So this will be my sera neon... but i don't understand....at what distance must it be from the turtle...there is a little tabel-thingy on its site but I don't know....help?...anyone?

Can you post a link of that thread? Thanks :-) I just noticed I accidentally erased a post... Why I don't have an exoterra 5.0 reptiglo neon [ and will have one from sera ]? Because you can no longer find them in Romania and no one wants to import (allegedly)... do exoterra still makes them?
