Hi,
I`ve used the UVB emmiting lamps for some time, but I`ve been firmly convinced that when kept under optimum conditions (a whole prey diet, sufficient basking temps etc, etc), UVB lamps sre not needed for captive varanids.
They remain in excellent health, long lived, and productive for many, many years, without exposure to UVB.. I`m a "convert"!!
