best lights

does anyone have a favorite basking/uvb lighting system?

I use an 18" Zoomed hood with a regular light bulb and a Reptisun 5.0 UVB in it, as well as a dome with my basking bulb in it. Seems to provide the essentials and I can give my plants some more light with the regular bulb. Also, it keeps he cage nice and bright.

For UV, I don't think that you can better the Arcadia T5.

thanks for all the replies

yeah I am sure most people will suggest the t5 arcadia's for uv. i wouldnt go less than a dual especially if keeping live plants. Basking your safe using house hold incandescents

Arcadia T5's all the way. I use the 12% on all my chameleons including jacksons and kinyongia and they all do really well under them.

I would recommend the quad

Recently picked up a 72" quad set up from Light Your Reptiles. Very happy with it so far!

I have both the double and quad fixtures from LYR with 6% Arcadia and they are both great:

I've also had success with ReptiSun 5.0 bulbs.
