ReptiSun 10.0 T5-HO UVB Fluorescent Lamp, 54W

The Zoo Med Reptisun 10.0 UVB T5 HO high output lamp is designed to emit UVB a full 20/51cm from the surface of the lamp, thereby preventing or reversing metabolic bone disease, in contrast to the Reptisun 5.0 which emits UVB 12"/30cm from the surface. This makes it optimal for larger terrariums where more than 12" of UVB penetration is required. The Reptisun 10.0 is also recommended for use above screen covers, which can filter out up to 50% of UVB wavelengths.

In addition to emitting UVB, this lamp also emits UVA wavelengths, which help increase appetite, activity, and induce reproductive behavior in reptiles. Furthermore, it aids in vitamin D3 synthesis and calcium absorption, both of which are essential for the health of reptiles.

The Zoo Med Reptisun 10.0 UVB T5 HO high output lamp is a full spectrum, low-heat lamp. This means it provides a wide range of light wavelengths, similar to natural sunlight, without producing excessive heat. This is important for maintaining a comfortable and healthy environment for reptiles while also meeting their specific lighting and heat requirements.

In conclusion, the Zoo Med Reptisun 10.0 UVB T5 HO high output lamp is an excellent choice for reptile owners who want to ensure their pets receive the necessary UVB and UVA wavelengths, as well as the full spectrum of light, to maintain their health and well-being.
