UVB UVA 2in1 bulb

[Crisboyx3]

So I was looking into bulbs, and I saw that there’s bulbs that have uvb and uva in one. So my question is which brand is better. I’ve been seeing posts that some brands are good and thn another site saying they are bad. Just wanted to know which ones are really good. Thanks

Those ALL IN ONE bulbs are Mercury Vapor types and are horrible.
They don't provide anything valuable and at worse, can do harm.

You want a T5 ho uvb strip florescent tube and a separate source for heat
