Yep, I am pretty sure that the Kinosternids can be raised without special UV or UVB lighting. In fact, I have raised many like this. But I have to think that for long term health and overall 'quality of life', it is better to provide it.
The expense is a bit more but worth it.
Plus, they look better in a well lit indoor aquarium.
