I imagine it would only affect how they look while the UV light is directly applied to them..
I know artists often recommend using UV lighting if you intend to use colour paints at night time or in poor lighting, as "normal" lights do not reflect the full colour spectrum.

I wouldnt have thought UV lighting would make any significant long term difference?


Also, it is amazing to think that these snakes are worth so much.. I can understand why though, they are absolutely beautiful!
