Best florecent bulb for L.williamsi ?

I picked up a repti-glo 5.0 but I was wondering if anyone know anything about the sectral plot of hagens life-glo bulbs for vivariums/terrariums ? Should I just stick with the repti-glo for my lygo's ?

Would you supplement it with a second tube that emits UV? From what I've heard of the Hagens tube, is that it radiates little to no UVB.

Hi..

I would recomend you to use the Exo-Terra 2.0 UVB bulb instead (The big one).
It gives more bright light instead of the 5.0

Or better yet, combine a 2.0 and a 5.0. I use this setup, and it works and looks perfect. Very good light and enough UV.
2.0 also has a more pleasant glow than 5.0.

Try it, you will not regret you did.
