Description

5.0 13w Compact Lamp Repti Glo Bulb

These ultraviolet bulbs are designed to mimic the natural UV radiation that reptiles receive in the wild, providing optimal levels of both UVA and UVB without emitting harmful UVC. Reliable and efficient, these bulbs ensure that reptiles benefit from the same UV exposure they receive in their natural habitats. Even nocturnal species, often thought to avoid sunlight, benefit from occasional UV exposure. These lamps have an excellent vitamin D3 yield index, ensuring optimal vitamin D3 photosynthesis, which is essential for calcium absorption. Adequate calcium absorption is essential for reptile health, helping to prevent metabolic bone disease and ensuring general well-being.

• Ideal for all tropical and sub-tropical reptiles
• Optimal levels of UVB
• Effective up to 40 cm (15″)
• Provides necessary UVB rays for optimal calcium metabolism
• UVA rays stimulate appetite, activity and reproductive behavior
• Combine with Natural Light or Reptile Vision for optimal visual light output

The Exo Terra Reptile UVB100 emits optimal levels of UVB, similar to that of shady environments such as rain forests or other tropical locations. Reptiles living in these habitats receive moderate UV radiation due to climatological conditions (fairly high humidity, changes in weather, etc) that prevent unfiltered sunlight from reaching the reptile’s basking site. The optimal Vitamin D3 yield index ensures vitamin D3 photosynthesis to aid calcium absorption and prevent metabolic diseases.

Light and UV radiation in compact fluorescent bulbs decreases over time. Changing your terrarium bulbs yearly ensures optimal light conditions to keep your reptiles healthy. Visit www.exo-terra.com and register for the “Restore The Rays” program and be reminded when to replace your bulb.

Pet care bulb for use with Reptiles, Amphibians and Invertebrates only!

This UV bulb will not provide sufficient heat alone and an additional basking lamp should always be provided to keep your reptiles in optimum condition and full health.
