Considering that you live in Florida and that your iguanas spend most of the year outdoors, I wouldn't think it neccessary to provide UVB for them during the short time they are indoors. I know of several people who keep their iguanas outside during the summer months and they get sufficient UVB to hold them through the winter. If you want to provide UVB for them indoors use the ZooMed fluorescent reptile bulbs. For heat you can use just plain incandescent light bulbs or ceramic heat emiters. I sure do envy you Florida folks!! *sigh*
