Lighting/heat/UV stress!

[Whitney D Cryer]

I've read so much information on this site as far as heating and UV and lighting goes. I keep trying to Google the different kinds that everyone says they are using but I'm so lost now. I do know that the one I'm using is apparently wrong and I want to get it fixed ASAP .
Can everyone please post a picture of the specific bulbs/housing you use for heat/light/uv. And the wattage you use. I think pictures will help as I'm out tomorrow trying to find what I need.
Thanks!

For most torts a ceramic heat emitter for added day time heat if needed and for night heat. For UVB, a mercury vapor bulb works good, I believe it's 100 watts. For red foots a flourescent UVB works best but you will need added heat.
MVB http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002AQDJK/?tag=exoticpetnetw-20
The fixture for MVB any like these with a ceramic socket. Just be sure it fits the watts your using
