Hi, I just wanted to ask a quick question. I have a coil shaped UVB bulb in my enclosure, and everything's chipper. Why are they so bad?

If it damages our little friends eyes it needs be gone from the market. Wish I was queen. I would declare it bah-bye.

The bulbs are supposedly now fixed and don't cause the problems originally found in them, however, there was never a recall, so the old, bad bulbs are still out there. One has no way of knowing if he were buying a new bulb or an old bulb.
