Can anyone tell me what percentage of uva & uvb a bulb needs to be? found a bulb that says it contains 30% uva & 7% uvb. Is that enough?

Hi, If you read the other posting I'm sure you know which bulb to get now.

I've found that stores like PetCo and PetSmart charge about $49.99 for a 10% UVB 30% UVA light. There's a small reptile store near my house that has great prices. They also have a web site: www.lllreptile.com

The same bulb there sells for 26.99
