24" hoods fit 18" bulbs.
I have the same prob, I want 24" hoods with 20" bulbs. Can't seem to find them.
let me know if you do!
Im brain storming here so bear with me...
are your cages side by side? Could we use 30" hoods, with 24" bulbs? And let the extra hood length lap over the other cage?. That way they wont just hang over the sides and not fit?

I was actually looking at that and thinking uv and plant light? Not sure about 2 uv's but I notice my 48" tall cages seem a little dark to me compared to my others

you just need the one 5.0 bulb. You get a 24 inch fixture to go across the top and that will hold the 18 inch bulb.

the bulb doesnt have to go the entire length of the cage, but you can just let the hood hang over the edge, just make sure you dont bump into it and knock it off

DIY cages also has a duel 24" that takes 24" tubes, 1 5.0 UVB & 1 6500K. Like Son mentioned 2x2x4 is a big cage to illuminate with just one tube. The basking light helps but it's still 4' to the bottom of that cage. Search for dual fixture and you'll find the people that have them like them, I do.
