Sorry missed you post!!!

This is a very complex area to the untrained Click and drag me down to the editor

here is a good site that explains about UV
http://www.uvguide.co.uk/

I have combined lamps (Heat UVB) and they are 125w.

HTH
Please ask if you are unsure about anything and I will try to get you some answers
