Upgrade to arcadia?

[Srmcclure]

Hi everyone!

So ive been looking around and it seems like a lot of you guys prefer the arcadia line for your uvb lights. I was thinking of upgrading next month to those for my torts and was wondering where you all get your bulbs and fixtures. I'm using the Zoo Med HO bulbs currently, but it seems like arcadia are so much better.

Just figured I'd start looking now so I know what exactly to get when the time comes.

@Markw84 and @Tom If you guys know a good place to purchase these or a specific bulb/fixture you recommend over the others that would be great! Its for a SA Leopard and a redfoot. Obviously separate enclosures ?

Thank you all!

I actually stock the 22" Arcadia Pro T5 fixture and 12% Arcadia bulb to install in the enclosures I build. They can be hard to find in the US, especially lately with all the overseas shipping issues due to the Covid situation. My supplier was out and it took over 2 months to get some back in stock in the US.

If you have a real problem, message me and see if I have some in stock when you are ready. I also stock the Arcadia T5 HO 12% 34" bulb.

The ZooMed ones are fine too. If you have those set at the right height and they are working for you, no need to switch. If you want to switch anyway, you can find Arcadia bulbs at Lightyourreptiles.com.
