UV lighting?

I'm finishing Clyde's new habitat. What sort of UVB is best for G. vallidus, if any?

Lumichrome XX, ZooMed Reptisun 5.0, or Exo Terra Repti Glo 5.0 or 8.0 florescent bulbs. Even though they are heavely plated they will benefit from UVB with Calcium & D3 syenthesising. Sorry about spelling, long night. Use a Halogen or Spot light bulb for heat. I get these at Menards or Lowes.

The Spot lights at Menards & Lowes. The florescents can be purchased at Swaps, Shows, Reptile stores, and Suppliers on Kingsnake.com
