Question on UVB bulbs.........

Iguanamom Dec 22, 2004 07:03 PM

Hi everyone. I was just looking at LLL reptiles site for a new UVB bulb for ozzy, one of his christmas presents lol. Anyway I usually buy the zoomed Reptisun 5.0 uvb bulb. I noticed they have one its a Exo Terra ReptiGlo 8.0 UVB bulb. So i was thinking more uvb is good right? What i dont get is its only 13.99 where the zoomed reptisun 5.0 is like 17.99? So anyone have any experience with these bulbs? Why would the one with more UVB be cheaper? Doesnt make sense to me. Thanks Tami

Hi Tami
I've always used the EXO Terra ReptiGlo 8.0 UVB and it works just fine. I think the Reptisun is more expensive just because it is from ZooMed. So, don't worry about the Exo Terra Reptiglo, it works just fine.
Take care,
Later,
Dan
