Hi,,everyone...I have a 2 year old Carrot Tail that I got Innovative Ectotherms. He's really doing well and he's a very fun lizard to have. His name is Kinky as he has a small kink in his tail. Anyway, I have been using externally ballasted UV bulbs that I had been purchasing from Westron Lighting. However, I think they have gone out of business since their Quebec office number is no longer in service and I keep leaving messages at their NY office and no one returns my calls. The bulb I have is 13 months old and I want to get a new one. Any suggestions on what I can replace it with? His basking site is supplemented with a ceramic heater and is 120 degrees directly under to 100 degrees about 10 inches away from center. I also give him a vitamin/mineral supplement with D3 twice per week. Good variety of temps and hide spots available throughout the enclosure. Thanks in advance.

I would switch to the new T5 high output flourescent. They are great from what I hear. Havent switch but thinking of it. Zoomed and lightyourreptiles.com have them. Need special fixture as they need a special ballast and are 2 inches shorter than standard flourwscents.
Thanks!!
