Hello! I have a new Russian Tortoise that I bought at a pet store on Saturday. He seems very healthy and happy. I have been able to provide him with natural sunlight since Sat., but I purchased a bulb for him today. the Supply Store had different types of bulbs for different types of reptiles (tropical, desert, full spectrum). I bought the full spectrum 2.0 UVB because it said it was for all types of reptiles. The one I almost bought was the tropical 5.0 UVB. What is the difference and did I get the correct one. I have heat bulbs, correct diet, great habitat run and other stuff, but I was unsure about the UVB lighting. I also have a cuttlebone in his run, so do I still need to do a calcium/vitamin dusting on his food? Thanks for any input and assistance you can provide. [/size][/font]
