Sorry to hear about your pending eviction....

As far as my comments go, I didn't intend to be harsh, I just tend to try to follow the old Chinese proverb;

"Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he will eat for a lifetime."

So, rather than simply continuing to answer all your questions, it seemed more appropriate to show you how you could obtain the answers quickly yourself, not just now, but in the future as well. Then if you still have questions, ask away!

I get what you meant I just let my feelings / emotions get the better of me sometimes... I appreciate what your saying / trying to say but ya I was just looking for a quick answer and I suppose in some way what others keep their UVB distances at. I havent measured it yet but just from looks mine appears to be at about 10 - 12" from the docks surface, and thats from end of bulb to dock not end of dome to dock.
