Pulled tail shed.

I thought Arcadia was a European based company, not true?

No idea but Europe isn't necessarily UK. I've managed to find the bulbs on Amazon but not the fixture. I will ask tomorrow and see what they have at the reptile center.

The fixtures aren’t on Amazon but it’s the bulbs that matter. You can use any fixture to run them.

Aren’t the zoomed T5 HO fixtures on Amazon?

I can't find them, unless I am typing the wrong thing in. I'll ask tomorrow at the reptile centre I'm sure they'll have them.

I'm 100% the guys in the reptile center can sort me out with it all tomorrow. I am worried I will buy the wrong thing, so better to somewhere I know will know what's what. The UVB and mount that I have now cost me £80. So I want be certain I am getting the right things when it comes to replacing what I have.

We're getting off track though, this thread wasn't about lighting and my problem is now solved. Not that I don't appreciate the help.

Here’s a recent thread on it. There’s a lot more info on it elsewhere but in summary CFL bulbs are just worse than linear tubes. I personally dont think it’s a huge issue if you keep the bulb for a bit longer but I would switch when I had the opportunity.

I quite clearly got confused with all of this. I actually do have a linear bulb. Not 100% sure where I stated having a CFL bulb but it's definitely not what I am using. No wonder I've been so confused. Hahahaha.
