How to use
- Gently screw the 13W bulb into a compatible E26 or E27 standard ceramic socket fixture, preferably a shallow light dome.
- Position the lamp securely over the reptile terrarium mesh top, ensuring the appropriate safe distance from your pet based on their specific species guidelines.
- Keep the light operational for 8 to 12 hours daily to maintain a natural day-night cycle.
- For optimal UV performance, replace the bulb every 6 to 12 months as UV emission naturally degrades over time even if visible light remains.

FAQs
What is a 5.0 UVB bulb?
A 5.0 UVB bulb is a specialized reptile fluorescent lamp that provides 5% UVB radiation and a designated percentage of UVA radiation. This specific level of UV output is intentionally calibrated to mimic the dappled sunlight conditions of tropical rainforests and shaded forest canopies.
Do Iguanas need 5.0 or 10.0 UVB?
Green iguanas are native to tropical rainforest environments where they live under filtered canopy light, making a 5.0 UVB bulb ideal for their daily requirements. Conversely, desert-dwelling reptile species require a stronger 10.0 UVB bulb to replicate intense, unfiltered desert sun exposure.
Is a 5.0 UVB light good for leopard geckos?
Yes, a 5.0 UVB light can be safely used for leopard geckos, provided it is kept at an appropriate distance and proper hiding spaces are available in the enclosure. Because geckos are crepuscular, low-level UV exposure helps regulate their natural cycles and assists with safe calcium synthesis.
