Description:
The key to an effective and safe UVB bulb is to have optimal quantities of UVB radiation in the 290-310 nm range while reducing the UVA within safe levels. This new and improved Sun Glow Coil Bulbs are engineered and tested to ensure they perform within these parameters. UVB radiation is important for captive reptiles and amphibians because it can stimulate the production of vitamin D and help prevent or reverse metabolic bone disease. The proper amount of UVA is also essential as it helps increase activity levels, reproduction levels, and appetite.
These 5.0 UVB fluorescent bulbs are ideal for diurnal species (active during the day) such as bearded dragons, uromastyx and other species. Recent research also suggests that crepuscular and nocturnal species (active during twilight and nighttime) benefit from UVB radiation as well.
This lamp can also serve as an important stimulant to live plants in vivariums and terrariums.
