I really don't think there is such a thing as too much UVB. In the wild animals are under the sun all the time, only getting out of it when too hot. Reptiles use UVB to produce D3 but once they reach the maximun amount their bodies need, they just stop producing D3 in their bodies. UVB by itself won't harm the reptile.



There was a great link to an artical about UVB awhile back...wish I could remember the site as it had some great information. Maybe somebody else here can remember it. YOu can try doing a search on UVB but that is bound to bring up way to many hits to make it easy to track down which thread at the link.
