10.0 Uvb lighting?

Is a 10.0 Ivan lighting good enough for a Russian tort

What type of bulb? Long tube type or spiral coil type cfl?

The cfl types can burn their eyes and should not be sold or used. The long tube types work but they must be mounted no more than 10-12 inches from the tortoise to work.

Yes. A 10.0 tube will work if you mount it 10-12" away from the tortoise.
