Compact Fluorescent Desert Terrarium Lamps, 13 Watt (4 Pack)

The sun's energy is the driving force behind all life on Earth. Without it, all life would cease to exist. Although the sun and its light are highly complex, there are three key elements of light that are crucial and easily reproducible for reptile husbandry: ultraviolet light, visible light, and infrared light. To create these three biological aspects of sunlight artificially, Exo Terra has developed specialized lights for use in natural terrariums or aqua-terrariums. It is important to note that it is almost impossible to accommodate all of these needs in a single light source, and a combination of different light sources is often necessary.

The Exo Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 Compact Fluorescent Desert Terrarium Lamps, available in a pack of 4 and with a 13-watt rating, are ideal for all desert-dwelling reptiles. These lamps help simulate the environment of a natural desert and provide an ultra-high UVB output that is effective up to 20 inches. They are recommended for use with screened terrariums and terrariums with dense screen covers, and can be combined with Repti-Glo 2.0 lamps to achieve a higher visual light output. The Repti-Glo 10.0 lamps provide the necessary UVB rays for optimal calcium metabolism in reptiles.

The sun's role in sustaining life on Earth is undeniable. By understanding the key elements of sunlight and utilizing specialized lighting solutions like the Exo Terra Repti-Glo 10.0 lamps, reptile enthusiasts can create an environment that closely mimics the natural habitat, ensuring the health and well-being of their desert-dwelling reptiles.
