ActiveUV bulbs are awesome. But make sure you have a large dome lamp with a ceramic socket as they burn hot and a plastic socket would be a fire hazard. that is a heat and UVB bulb all in one. If not, the best bet instead of a long bulb (the longes they make is 48" I think) you can get two Reptisuns and put them width-ways across the pen in two different areas so the UVB hits as much of the pen as possible, so it is on the tortoise for more time, depending on where he is...
