Default Repti Glo question

Hi,
Can anyone tell me if a Repti glo (Dessert Terrerium Lamp) 10.0 is suitable for Indian Stars? I am going to be getting a Mega-ray when I have some extra money but my sister has a spare one of these which I was going to use in the meantime??

Thanks guys

This is the bulb I have....can anyone tell me if it is suitable..??

Repti Glo 10.0
Desert Terrarium Lamp


  • Ideal for all desert dwelling reptiles
  • Ultra High UVB output
  • Effective up to 50 cm (20")
  • Provides necessary UVB rays for optimal calcium metabolism
  • Recommended for use with screened terrariums; terrariums with dense screen covers (screens can filter out UVB rays)
  • Recommended in combination with Repti Glo 2.0 for a higher visual light output
The Exo Terra Repti Glo 10.0 has a very high UVB output similar to that associated with desert environments. Desert locations receive more direct sunlight than any other because of fewer clouds, less air humidity and no plants or trees to provide shade. Therefore desert reptiles are more exposed to UV radiation than any other type of reptile. This bulb can also be used on screened terrariums or terrariums with dense screen covers to ensure UVB penetration.
