About This Product

Fluker's new and improved Sun Glow Coil Bulb is engineered to provide optimal UVB while maintaining lower levels of safe UVA. The key to an effective and safe UVB bulb is to have optimal UVB radiation in the 290-310 nm range while reducing the UVA within safe levels. Fluker's Sun Glow Coil Bulb was engineered and tested to ensure that it falls in those parameters. UVB - UVB radiation is important for captive reptiles and amphibians because it can help stimulate the production of vitamin D and help prevent or reverse metabolic bone disease. UVA - The proper amount of UVA is also essential to captive reptiles and amphibians. UVA wavelengths increase activity levels, reproduction levels and appetite. 5.0 UVB Tropical Bulbs are ideal for box turtles, aquatic turtles, corn snakes, tortoises, chameleons, iguanas, geckos and other tropical species.

  • 5.0 UVB is perfect for all tropical and temperate reptiles and amphibians
  • 26 watt bulb provides beneficial UVB up to 9" - 13" from the lamp to the basking site of the reptile
  • Ideal for box turtles, aquatic turtles, corn snakes, tortoises, chameleons, iguanas, geckos and other tropical species
  • Can also serve as an important stimulant to live plants in vivarium's and terrariums
  • Can be beneficial for nocturnal species such as leopard geckos and other reptiles / amphibians that are more active at night

Directions:

Screw coil bulb into proper standard screw-base lamp such as Fluker's Regular Deep Dome Lamp. Ensure lamp is secure over your reptile's basking site at the proper distance between bulb and basking site. The lamp should be placed outside your reptile's enclosure. For optimal health of your reptile, provide a 12 to 14 hour light cycle. Using a 12 to 14 hour light cycle, your bulb will produce sufficent UVB for 12 months. Before using your bulb, write down the date you start using it on the base of the bulb with a permanent marker to remind you when to replace it. Note: Bulb becomes hot to the touch while in use. Avoid contact with flammable material. Do not look into the bulb while in use.
