UVB through the screen?

[Bernie]

I have just bought my first screen enclosure. It is a ReptiBreeze XL. I have a ReptiSun 5.0 tube running across the top of the screen from corner to corner diagonally.

I have an Arcadia reflector sat on top of the UVB tube. Is this OK? I have read in a few places that it shouldnt pass through a screen.

It is fine. Almost everybody's UVB passes through the screen enclosure. As long as there is a spot for your chameleon to perch within a foot or so from the bulb as there is a limit of how far the UVB penetrates.
