Because my helmet is old, I wanted to buy a new helmet for my birthday present, but I'll buy a solarmeter instead for my tort

I turn on the t5 lamp 12 hours a day

Which should I buy, 6.2r or 6.5r? And I want to know the correct measurement for the leopard.

I was a student who hated science class. I'll wait for the help of the veterans. Thank you always

You want the 6.5.

The level you want depends on how you use the lamp. If you have it on all day, I would try for a level of 3-4.

I always appreciate you. What do you mean by level 3? Does it mean zone 3? Or is uvb index 3.0?

The little readout on your Solarmeter 6.5 should read around 3 or 4.
