so the bulb i have is the Repti Glo 10.0 Compact
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. Dense screens can filter out up
to 50% of the UVB rays. Fluorescent bulbs lose their UV radiation
and approximately 50% of their lighting output quality within one
year. Changing your terrarium bulb regularly ensures optimal
light conditions and UV radiation to keep your reptiles healthy.

And i need to stack that bulb with
Mercury Vapour
The Exo Terra Solar Glo Sun Simulating Lamp is the solution to one of the most important aspects
of keeping reptiles and amphibians, providing the benefits of natural sunlight. The proper balance
of ultraviolet light (including UVA and UVB), visual light and infrared light (heat) in one easy-toinstall
bulb makes the Exo Terra Solar Glo the choice of professional breeders. The Solar Glo is a
full spectrum light with carefully tuned peaks to ensure appetite, activity, brilliant colours, and calcium
absorption through Vitamin D3 production, and above all to prevent metabolic bone disease.
The Exo Terra Solar Glo is available in two wattages, 125 W and 160 W. Exo Terra refrained
from developing lower wattages as lower wattages simply do not generate enough heat for
these self-ballasted bulbs to work properly, making them unstable and unreliable.
So my question is i need both of them or just the top one/bottom
