The Reptarium is absolutly well worth the price. I have mine in a 175 gallon one with plenty of room to spare. Usually it is said to use about 5.5 UV bulbs with iguanas, however, 7 should certainly do it good especailly if it is showing signs of MBD (Metabolic Bone Disease). I would even suggest finding a UV mecury vapor heat light. These lights produce both UV and heat and are very good at nursing back an iguana to proper health. Currently ZooMed and T-Rex make these bulbs and possibly a third that I can't recall now.
