UVB rays for calcium metabolism, UVA rays to stimulate appetite and behaviour, and ensures vitamin D3 photosynthesis to aid calcium absorption and prevent metabolic diseases.

Exo Terra Tropical Terrarium Bulb 100 UVB replaces Repti Glo 5.0, it 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. I for all tropical and sub-tropical reptiles.Exo Terra Desert Terrarium Bulb 150 UVB has a very high UVB output similar to sunlight in deserts. These locations receive more direct sunlight, therefore desert reptiles are more exposed to UV radiation than any other type of reptile. This bulb can also be used on terrariums with denser screen covers to ensure sufficient UVB penetration. Dense screens can filter out up to 50% of the UVB rays. The high Vitamin D3 yield index ensures vitamin D3 photosynthesis to aid calcium absorption and prevent metabolic diseases. I for desert dwelling reptiles. for terrariums with dense screen covers.

Features:

• UVB rays - For optimal calcium metabolism
• UVA rays - Stimulate appetite, activity and reproductive behaviour
• D3 conversion - Ensures Vitamin D3 photosynthesis to aid calcium absorption and prevent metabolic diseases
