I highly recommend getting a MegaRay EB Flood from www.reptileuv.com for your UVB. The system is about $75 with replacement lamps being right around $45. It doesn't come with a fixture to put the lamp in so buy one of those, with a ceramic socket (they last MUCH longer than plastic sockets), at your local Home Depot or similar store. They're exactly the same as the ones in the pet stores, but they are 1/4 the cost. I have had one for about two weeks now, and both of my igs are showing increased appetite, and activity levels. My female, who has been recovering over the last couple of months from a near fatal bite inflicted by my male ig, is suddenly even regaining control of her left arm, which had been partially paralyzed due to the nerve damage caused by the bite. Anyway, I don't know what other UVB sources are capable of, but this one is DEFINTELY doing wonderful, miraculous things for the condition of my little girl. She actually squeaked at me one evening when I was trying to get her to go to bed. I had no idea iguanas could squeak, but she did. She was extremely frustrated with being pulled out from underneath her new light, and fought me so hard she squeaked.
As some of you know, I had problems with my first MegaRay, but BobMac gave me extraordinary personal service to make sure I got a product I was happy with. He has sent my malfunctioning bulb back to the manufacturer to have them examine it and see if they can strengthen a possible weakness and make the product even better.
