Hi all, so I'm thinking of rescuing a beardie from my local rescue, but they are extremely picky and I don't want to get turned down for not following their requirements. One requirement is that they require a self-ballasted mercury vapor bulb. So I got some questions for ya. 8)
I've read that these bulbs produce great heat and UVA, but that they aren't the greatest with UVB output. Is this true?
Also, would I be able to use this MVB as my basking bulb in addition to a UVB light like the reptisun 10.0 or would that be TOO much UVB?
Thank you guys! I've literally been on here off and on for a year doing research and you've all been a big help lol.
