Live Plants and Lighting

[Rowellos]

Im currently in the process of getting a bigger cage for my 5month ambilobe. I just bought a good sized schefflera but was wondering if my uvb light would be enough light for it to grow indoors? I have no sunlight at all coming into my room.

I have had them do ok with just that. What usually kills them for me is over watering
I use plant grow lights now, and it makes a big difference in the growth, and health of the plant.
I think it will live, but I recomend getting a plant light to make sure

They can survive with just the UVB and basking lights, but a plant light can help
