Just because they specialize in reptiles doesn't mean they also specialize in amphibians. They are completely different and have different requirements.10.0 UVB would be fine for most reptiles as they need UVB light. Amphibians do not need it and can actually be harmed by it. They benefit from 4 to 6 hours of UVB light a day but that's all. UVB radiation is used to naturaly produce Vitamine D3 in the body. Since the lights that produce the Radiation are usually too bright or strong we provide D3 through supplementation Like the calcium pouders that contain D3. I'm not saying that the shop doesn't know anything about amphibians, but that seems like a bad recomendation on their part.

no i totall agree with u. i have a few friends who have snakes, lizards, toads etc who use the store and rate it highly. tbf, i got my whites from there and they told me a 30x30x45 would b suitable for 2 whites (i only went for one) so i got 2 as suggested. i dont think they thought to tell me that id need to upgrade the tank once they were bigger or maybe it was just that they didnt know. i dont think i will b using them again unless it is just to get frogs if i cant get them from anywhere else (they r the nearest store and thats about 30 mins away-we dont drive either). im not really very happy with them now that i know wot i do! i certainly wont recommend them. right im gonna go try sort out a lift to pets a home for a new bulb!
