Best UVA/UVB bulb for rhino iguana?

[Conner]

As the title says, what would be the best UVA/UVB bulb for a rhino iguana? I've currently got an Exo Terra Sun Glow 65W bulb, but it only provides UVA rays, not UVB. I need both, correct?

I'd prefer not to get too expensive if possible. I was looking at some at my LFS and they were all $25-30 dollars for a basic UVA bulb.

you are going to need 2 different bulbs to provide both UVA and UVB. UVB bulbs are always florescent bulbs of varying strengths. I would go with the reptisun 10 for a rhino, that is the medium strength bulb and it should do fine unless the tank is very tall. if it is taller than 24" or so, go for the stronger ones.

Also, there is no replacement for natural sun light and it is best to give it as much as possible. Build an outdoor pen if you can and let it stay there as often as you can. The colors will really show nicely if you allow for natural sun.

I was looking at the reptisun 10, so that's good. I'll be getting one this weekend hopefully. And I definitely plan on taking him outside as often as I can. I just want to let him settle down and get used to handling a little more before I take him out there.
