If I were you I'd do the 24" Reptisun 10.0. That way you get UVB across the entire top of the cage and you'll get better penetration through the screen.
I am thinking of getting one of these http://www.homedepot.com/p/Lithonia...White-Grow-Light-GRW-2-14-CSW-CO-M4/202745704
uses the T5 bulbs, can have a both a plant bulb and a UVB bulb..
Or heck just order from Light your reptiles
I'm not sure I understand your question, what bulb that comes with what? If you mean a daylight bulb, no, that's totally fine. It doesn't produce any UVB, just white light, so it will brighten things up but won't add any UVB at all.
And no, I don't think a 10.0 is too strong for a juvie. The screen from the cage cuts down a lot of the UVB so by the time it gets to the basking branch 6" down or so from the bulb the levels reaching your cham are super moderate.
i ment would the 6500k plant light in combination with a 10.0 UVB light be too much for the lizard. but its all good, don't think im gona buy a double light fixture...
