Flexarium And Uvb...

[dindy]

i had seen on here a few time about uvb not going throught certain screens...i have a exo terra flexarium....does any one know what this material is like and does the uvb pass through this kind of nett??? also does it pass through matal mesh with small holes like in screen doors???
i have 2 chams and 2 diff cages and im just making sure there getting enough uvb..i use a 18'uvb 5.0 tube!!!

For the mesh cages like the flexarium's some use the 10.0 and some use the 5.0 the only difference in the two is that the 10.0 puts out 5% more UVB than the 5.0 and 10.0 extends UVB up to 24 Inches where as the 5.0 only 12 inches. Either work just as fine. I would only suggest if u use the 10.0 to raise it up off the cage a few inches or so but honestly either work just as fine. I use the 5.0 with my reptarium cage, which has the mesh netting and it works just find. But each person is going to have a difference preference of course.
