Description
When your reptile lives in a tall or deep enclosure, the light has to reach all the way down to the basking spot. The Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 UVB T8 Fluorescent Lamp in white is a 36-inch lamp built for exactly that, with UVB that Zoo Med says travels a full 20 inches, or 51cm, from the surface of the lamp. That extra reach is what sets the 10.0 apart, and the 3-foot length spreads it across a generous span.
What the 36-inch ReptiSun 10.0 T8 brings to your terrarium:
Zoo Med says this lamp emits UVB a full 20 inches (51cm) from the lamp surface, compared to 12 inches (30cm) on the ReptiSun 5.0.
According to Zoo Med, that deeper reach helps to prevent or reverse metabolic bone disease.
Optimal, per Zoo Med, for larger terrariums where more than 12 inches of UVB penetration is needed.
The 36-inch length covers a wide span, so the light spreads across roomy enclosures.
Zoo Med also recommends the 10.0 for use above screen covers, which can filter out up to 50% of UVB wavelengths.
Emits 10% UVB and 30% UVA, as listed by Zoo Med.
High quality bulbs, made in Germany.
Standard white T8 fluorescent format that fits common T8 fixtures for a straightforward setup.
A strong choice for tall tanks where the basking area sits well below the lid.
Designed for the everyday work of keeping reptiles in larger, deeper habitats.
If you keep your reptile under a screen lid or in a tank where the distance to the basking spot is real, the 36-inch ReptiSun 10.0 T8 is made to push UVB where shorter-reaching lamps fall short. Set it in a matching T8 fixture, position it over the screen if you use one, and let Zoo Med’s deeper-penetrating output do its job. It is a dependable way to support your reptile’s lighting in a bigger setup, backed by bulbs made in Germany. Give your scaly companion the reach it needs, right down to where it likes to bask.
