Exo Terra Reptile UVB100

Exo Terra Reptile UVB100

Description:
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.

These bulbs also produces UVA which plays a vital row in how reptiles and amphibians view their environment. They do not produce as much heat compared to Exo Terra Solar Glo and this makes it particularly suitable for animals that do not require that much of heat to thermo-regulate. 

Features:
- New Spectrum! Former Repti Glo 5.0
- 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

Suitable for:
Reptiles (Most Diurnal Reptiles)
- Bearded Dragon (Requires intense UVA, UVB & Heat) [Can Consider Exo Terra UVB150 / Exo Terra Solar Glo]

- Blue Tongued Skinks (Requires intense UVA, UVB & Heat) [Can Consider Exo Terra UVB150 / Exo Terra Solar Glo]

- Tegus (Requires intense UVA, UVB & Heat) [Can Consider Exo Terra UVB150 / Exo Terra Solar Glo]

- Tortoises (Requires intense UVA, UVB & Heat) [Can Consider Exo Terra UVB150 / Exo Terra Solar Glo]

- Turtles (Requires intense UVA, UVB & Heat) [Can Consider Exo Terra UVB150 / Exo Terra Solar Glo]

* These reptiles generally do not need UVB lighting to survive. Most of them are nocturnal species and do not come out and about in the day that helps them to absorb all the UV ray goodness. Or that some can suffice with Calcium & Vitamin D3 supplements. However, studies have shown that UVA & UVB light have proven itself to improve any reptile's health. They help to boost their immune system, health and overall wellness of the reptile. All you have to do is to place the Exo Terra Reptile UVB bulb at the hot spot (heat mat) area so that they receive all that light goodness when they are thermo-regulating.
