I'm looking for people to post pics of their uva/b setup. I have the long tube uvb light, and am having trouble positioning it over the basking area with uva. I'll post a picture later today- oging to work now-.

I only have a 10 gallon. I just got a screen to hold the light better.
I got my other light at linens and things for 7.99, matches my living room

Cute little turtle and a nice-looking plant.

Do you know what the temps of the basking area and water are?

Hi Marisa,
I wasn't sure if you were asking me or Bradhart. But in case you were asking me. My water Temp is between 78 and the basking area is 90. The plant is fake but my turt loves sleeping in it.

Hi donnamartin--I was directing my question to you, since you were the person who had the picture of the turtle and plant. Temp numbers sound good ( water temp between 78F and....?).
