Another anole question

[leogecko88]

I am thinking of getting one those glass terrariums with the doors on the front. The trouble is that the screen top is fairly dense. I am concerned that it would block a lot of the UVB from passing through. I was going to get a 5% UV bulb, but will I need a 10% because of the density of the mesh? Sorry for all the questions, I just want to make sure the anole will get enough UVB.

The mesh shouldn't be a problem, your anole will be able to climb the screen and sit right under the bulb.

most bulbs are made with a screen in mind.
