I recently got my first reptile, a box turtle! And I have a question about lighting for my new little guy:
I bought the National Geographic UVB Desert Bulb and while it obviously emits UVB I don't know if it emits UVA also. The packaging and website don't say one way or the other.
So does anyone know if this bulb does both UVB and UVA?
If it does not do you have a recommendation for a bulb that does emit both UVB and UVA? The lighting fixture is National Geographic brand so I would like to use a National Geographic Bulb so I don't have to worry about comparability issues if at all possible. (But I'm open to other suggestions, I just want what is best for my new friend)
I also am using a Ceramic Heat Emiter for basking and a red night heat bulb for nighttime.
Thanks so much.
