Repti Zoo Desert T8 UVB 10 15W – 24″/60cm

Product Description

REPTI-ZOO UVB lamp uses UVB powder and technology imported from Japan to produce high-quality beneficial ray emitting glass bulbs and spiral tubes. The wavelength is stable between 290nm-310nm. The excellent ventilation design is provided in the medium wave UVB sunburn spectrum. The UVB producing bulbs passed the rigorous American ELT certification and have been sold in the American market in 2015.

Main functions of UVB lamp: Promotes the production of Vitamin D3 and promotes calcium absorption.  Vitamin D3 is an important component of calcium metabolism in reptile pets. Vitamin D3 production and calcium absorption combine, resulting in healthy skeletal tissue.

Generally, UVB 2.0, 5.0 and 10.0 refer to the percentage of 2%, 5% and 10% UVB.

Usage:

UVB 2.0 is relevant to reptiles and amphibians that are not sensitive to sunlight such frogs and snakes.

UVB 5.0 is applicable to reptiles living in tropical forests or subtropical zone, such as: star tortoise and other most tortoises.

UVB 10.0 is applicable to reptiles living in tropical desert zone, such as: Uromastyx, leopard tortoise, Sulcata tortoise.

It is suggested to match UVB light output with the specific needs of the reptile or amphibian

Suitable for reptiles with low requirements of ultraviolet rays,  such as snake, gecko, snake, Phelsuma m. Grandis, Terrapin, semi-Terrapin, etc.;

UVB2.0 (2%) Induces the activation of vitamin D3 that combines with calcium powder to promote the transformation of calcium in bone and blood (calcium absorption);

UVA ( 25%) improves appetite ,promotes animal’s natural behavior to elicit mating activities

Diurnal spectrum spiral energy-saving lamp promotes the growth of plants.

A standard light source which provides an efficient visual ray with high C.R.I. (Color Rendering Index) and low UV radiation

Suitable to all reptiles with moderate requirements for ultraviolet ray in tropical and subtropical zones, such as IG, Furcifer pardalis, red legs, Myanar, radiation, star tortoise, continental tortoise, etc.

UVB (5%) Induces the activation of vitamin D3 that combines with calcium powder to promote the transformation of calcium in bone and blood (calcium absorption);

UVA (30%) Improves appetite, promotes animal’s activity to induce mating behavior.

Effective UV lighting range reaches 30-40cm.

It is recommended to be combined with fluorescent lamp UVB2.0. The energy-saving lamp gives out moderate UVB, just as the ray in the shielded environment in the simulated tropical rainforest. The reptiles living in rainforest are rarely exposed to the ultraviolet ray radiation. Because sunshine can’t direct arrive to animals and their sunbathing places due to many factors. Some ultraviolet ray is filtered due to high humidity.

It is suitable to Pogona viticeps, Uromastyx , Sulcata Tortoise, Radiated tortoise, Leopard tortoise, Sulcata tortoise and other tortoises plus Frilled lizard, Tegu and various desert reptiles.

UVB (10%) Induces the activation of vitamin D3 that combines with calcium powder to promote the transformation of calcium in bone and blood (calcium absorption);

UVA (33%) Improves appetite, promotes animal’s activity to induce mating behavior.

Effective range is 30-50cm (12-18″)

It is recommended to be combined with UVB5.0. The UVB ultraviolet ray energy-saving bulb may be used for the desert environment because the ultraviolet ray output rate is very high.

Desert environments are sunny, arid, with less vegetation and trees and more sunlight than biomes ( like the Rainforest ).

The animals in desert biomes are exposed to more ultraviolet ray than other environments that reptile inhabit.
