do BTS need UV?

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if blue tongued skinks needed UVB lighting.




Thanks,

Yeah they do, I provide mine with a 7.0 UVB bulb.

7.0 repti sun or repti glo? Would a 5.0 iguana light do?




Thanks,

repti sun I THINK. Yeah I would guess a 5.0 iguana is good, iguanas need tons of UV, probably much more then BTS, so I think that would be fine.
