Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 UVB Desert Compact Fluorescent Lamp Mini White 13W

Bring the warmth and brilliance of natural sunlight to your reptile’s enclosure for optimal health and activity. Create a bright, naturalistic habitat that supports basking, feeding, and overall vitality for desert-dwelling reptiles.
The Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 UVB Desert Compact Fluorescent Lamp Mini White 13W provides the perfect balance of UVB and UVA light for reptiles that thrive in arid environments.  The Zoo Med Reptile Lamp is designed using UVB-transmitting quartz glass, ensuring maximum light penetration for better calcium metabolism. These reptile heat lamps emit a cool-burning, full-spectrum light that encourages natural reptile behaviors and promotes bone health.

• Avoid direct eye contact with the bulb when lit.
  
• Do not spray water or mist directly onto the lamp.
