Compact Lighting Lights

What kind of lighting should I provide for a box turtle?
I’m getting two this weekend. The whole tank is setup, I have the heat lamp I just need the UVB lamp. I was reading on a previous Y!A that a regular household compact light would be fine. Since the basking light is UVA, all I need is a UVB lamp right? Also, what watt?
Yes you need the UVB light. If you get fluorescent (don’t use the compact) the wattage is dependent on the length of the tank. A 24″ runs about 20 watts 36″ runs about 30 watts and so on. You can use a mercury vapor bulb which is much better. It provides heat too!
