    What am I missing?

    As I mentioned on another thread, I'm planning to get another BP - hopefully this weekend at the herp expo in Daly City. Money is a little tight right now, so I'm doing it bargain style... I've been shopping on craigslist, and already found a FREE 20-gallon glass aquarium & various supplies for sale. I'm hoping to pick up the free tank tomorrow, and just emailed somebody who has the following items (from their recently deceased iguana):

    - Zoomed ReptiSun 5.0 26 watt UVB compact fluorescent light run for approx 100 hrs
    - Repticare 60 watt screw-in ceramic heat emitter (run approx 480 hrs)
    - Reptisun 60 watt red light bulb (run approx 100 hours)
    - Fluker Clamp Lamp
    - at least one stone-type water dish
    - at least one chunk of grapewood for sunning

    I've read the sticky threads on setting up a tank, but I am still a little confused. Will I need an UTH if I use the ceramic heater and lights? And do I need both of those lights for a BP? I'll study that thread further once I get the stuff, but I just want to make sure I'm not missing anything. Also want to see if the supplies listed above are appropriate/useful, before I make any offers - they're asking $40 OBO for everything. TIA for any advice!
