Hey guys, so I moved baby Penny to a 20 gallon long because she looked like she was out growing her old tank. So now I'm using a tube UVB bulb and still using my 50 watt heat lamp. The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to rearrange the UVB and the heat lamp so I can close off the top to keep humidity in. Anyone have any pics of theirs that can help me out? Thank you

Most of us cut out holes for the lights. For you tube UVB, just cut out the space you will need for it. Unless you have room to hang them from the underside of the cover, cutting out space for them is about all you can do.

I can post a pic in the morning but my dad just took pieces of plexi glass and cut them so they sit in the tank . Then he cut out squares for the uvb bulb and the heat bulb ...
