<p>I just got a Grande from Steph and it looks just like this. Very odd. I bought it with plans to dump and goo kit but was wondering if this actually used to be a blue or if this was one of those off the wall color combos that never made it to the LL list? Doesn't look like glitter at all. Does it actually break down like this? Looks like sugar. Cap reads H6835 1.5 KO24 9/16/2003</p>

If the bulbs say UVB on them, they will eventually fade the lamp. UVB bulbs are made to provide for reptiles that need not only heat, but vitamins provided by the sun to process their food. Like bearded dragons, iguanas, and tortoises. However, those bulbs usually cost 2 to 3 times what the regular heat bulbs are. Also, many of the specialty reptile bulbs are made in the spiral fluorescent style now anyway. They are more economic and environmentally friendly. They also run about $15 to $20 a…
If the bulbs say UVB on them, they will eventually fade the lamp. UVB bulbs are made to provide for reptiles that need not only heat, but vitamins provided by the sun to process their food.

Also, many of the specialty reptile bulbs are made in the spiral fluorescent style now anyway. They are more economic and environmentally friendly. They also run about $15 to $20 a bulb. If your bulb is listed as UVA only, or does not have a UV listing, it will not fade your lava lamp any more than a regular 100 watt would. Tiff, I now have four grande and giants running on the 100 watt heat bulbs that are NOT UVB and there has been no change on colors. Chances are, if your like me anyway, if you shopped around for the cheapest 100 watt... It won't be UVB. my order from magma tower jus…tag:oozinggoo.ning.com,2012-10-17:1566398:Comment:4200382012-10-17T17:29:28.627Zlava luva ~ Tiffanyhttps://oozinggoo.ning.com/profile/tiffany583
