Yes, apparently uros can go without UVB, as can monitors, but that doesn't mean they don't prefer it, and it certainly doesn't mean that other lizard species can. Mine have a choice and truly pout if their UVB bulbs go out. Even Doug Dix is now recommending the MVBs because their coloring and behavior is undeniably improved in the presence of MVBs. I have seen the difference and so have most of the people that I know who use MVBs. I will not make a similar argment for florescents.



Robyn, I've asked this question several times to you people who diss UVB, and never get an answer. Why would you deny a sun loving creature UVB that gets UVB in the wild? You are so big on giving them choices, but you deny them the choice of basking under a UVB source?
