Crested geckos are a nocturnal species of gecko and do not require UVB lighting as a duirnal species of gecko would. A crested gecko can still use one but it is not required. Excessive exposure with nocturnal species to UVB can cause other health concerns, be sure that the animal has many places to hide and will not always be exposed to the light all day long.
