I would like to get Tank a UVB-UVA self ballasted mercury vapor lamp. Is this right for his indoor enclosure??? The Zoo Med ones are like $70.00 that I have found, is that the going price or does someone know of a better deal?

I got one from petsmart for $39.99. It's an exo-terra solar glo sun simulating lamp. they come in either a 125w or 160w - both are the same price.
