I'm not familiar with either of those, so I have no idea. Why do you want to use something so unconventional?

This will give the tortoise the needed bright light it needs but will not provide it the UVA-UVB it needs.

Ok thank you, I didn't think so either, my husband is building the enclosure. I just wanted confirmation . We have so many fixtures left from all of our reef tanks . He was just trying to make something different but also concerned about my Morlochs well being. Thank you, I like the mvb bulbs. I will stick with those!
