What lighting for my veiled chams?

[busterboy]

I have a 24” x 18” x 24” exo terra screen cage (male Veiled is in there)
I have an 18x18x24 screen cage (female veiled in there)

Both about 5 months old.....

I have been using 5.0 exo terra coil UVB bulbs. Its been about 5 months, so its time to exchange bulbs.

Any suggestions? Should I just buy the long light fixture and place one long light bulb across for the both of them or what?

Should I buy a UVA bulb also?

any help would be great

switch from the coiled and go with the tube UVB. You have basking lights too, right?

Yes I have basking lights. Basking lights are about 87 degrees. Is that enough?

And what type of UVB should I get though? and what about UVA?

Reptisun or Reptiglo 5.o for UVB. UVA you can use a white housebub. The wattage will depend on what temp you are looking to achieve.

Basking lights are UVA

Yea like one other poster stated I'd go with the Reptisun 5.0 (tube bulb), and for the UVA that will be your basking bulb (typical house bulb is fine). And yea, your 87 degrease basking temp is good.
