Glo Neodymium
. Broad spectrum daylight lamp for terrariums
.
Creates heat gradients for thermo-regulation
. Increases ambient air temperature
. Stimulates breeding behavior through UVA rays
. Can be combined with Night
Glo or Heat Glo for a 24 hours cycle
A broad spectrum daylight lamp with
a Neodymium sleeve. The spectrum is ideal for plant's photosynthesis and the UVA
(ultraviolet A) light contributes to reptiles' physiological well-being. Another
important factor is the heat emitted by this bulb to increase the over all ambient
temperature in the terrarium.

Creates a basking area for thermoregulation
. Increases ambient air temperature
. Stimulates breeding behavior through UVA rays
. Can be combined with Night
Glo or Heat Glo for a 24 hours cycle
A broad spectrum daylight spot lamp
with a Neodymium sleeve. The spectrum is ideal for plant's photosynthesis and
the UVA (ultraviolet A) light contributes to reptiles' physiological well-being.
The spot allows one to direct the heat and light in a certain direction to create
basking sites in the terrarium.

Glo Tight Beam
. Creates a basking area for thermoregulation
. Increases ambient air temperature
. Stimulates breeding behavior through UVA rays
. Can be combined with Night
Glo or Heat Glo for a 24 hours cycle
A lamp specially designed as a basking
spot lamp. The tight beam can be directed precisely on an area to create a basking
site. The heat and light in the beam is increased by 35%, allowing greater distances
between the bulb and the basking site. The UVA (ultraviolet A) light contributes
to reptiles' physiological well-being.

Compact
Fluorescent Bulbs The
advantage of the Exo Terra Repti Glo Compact Fluorescent bulb is its size and
the fact that it is self-ballasted. A regular screw fitting is sufficient to operate
these bulbs. The spiral shape of the bulb enables vertical or horizontal mounting
without compromising performance.
It
is recommended to combine a high UVB output (Repti Glo 5.0 and 10.0) with a very
high visual light output (Repti Glo 2.0) for optimal results.
Fluorescent
bulbs do not provide sufficient heat. A separate heat source is required in addition
(ex: incandescent basking lamp).

Repti
Glo 2.0 Compact
Full Spectrum Terrarium Lamp
. Ideal spectrum for all reptiles & amphibians
. Stimulates plant growth
. High visual light output
. Stimulates appetite,
activity and reproductive behaviour through UVA radiation
. High Colour Rendering
Index of 98 (CRI) - 6700 K
. Recommended in combination with Repti Glo 5.0
or Repti Glo 10.0, depending on the reptile's requirements
The
Exo Terra Repti Glo 2.0 is a general light source with a high visual light output
and a very high colour rendering index (CRI), but a lower UVB radiation. This
bulb is suitable for snakes, all amphibians (frogs, toads and salamanders) and
nocturnal animals. Plants will thrive under this light as well. It is also a perfect
complementary light to a UVB bulb to boost visual light. | |

Glo 5.0 Compact
Tropical Terrarium Lamp
. Ideal for all tropical and sub-tropical reptiles
. High UVB output
. Effective up to 30 cm (12")
. Provides necessary
UVB rays for optimal calcium metabolism
. Stimulates appetite, activity and
reproductive behaviour through UVA radiation
. Recommended in combination
with Repti Glo 2.0 for a higher visual light output
The
Exo Terra Repti Glo 5.0 has a moderate to high UVB output, similar to that of
shady environments such as rain forests and other tropical locations. Reptiles
living in these habitats receive less UV radiation because of the many climatological
conditions (fairly high humidity, changes in weather, etc) that prevent direct
sunlight from reaching them or their basking sites. | |

Desert Terrarium Lamp
. Ideal for all desert dwelling reptiles
. Ultra
High UVB output
. Effective up to 50 cm (20")
. Provides necessary
UVB rays for optimal calcium metabolism
. Recommended for use with screened
terrariums; terrariums with dense screen covers (screens can filter out UVB rays)
. Recommended in combination with Repti Glo 2.0 for a higher visual light output
The Exo Terra
Repti Glo 10.0 has a very high UVB output similar to that associated with desert
environments. Desert locations receive more direct sunlight than any other because
of fewer clouds, less air humidity and no plants or trees to provide shade. Therefore
desert reptiles are more exposed to UV radiation than any other type of reptile.
This bulb can also be used on screened terrariums or terrariums with dense screen
covers to ensure UVB penetration. Dense screens can filter out up to 50% of the
UVB rays.

Fluorescent
Bulbs The
most important feature of a fluorescent bulb is the ability to emit sufficient
UVB light (ultraviolet B), a component of sunlight, whereas an incandescent lamp
only emits very little amounts of UVA light. It is impossible to accommodate a
high visible light emission with a high ultraviolet (UV) output. The more visible
light emitted, the less UV-radiation and vice versa. Other
factors to consider: not all reptiles or terrarium animals need the same amount
of UVB-radiation: nocturnal versus daylight activity, geographical and climatological
conditions (ex: rainforests versus deserts). The distance from the bulb to the
animal is equally important. Exo
Terra's fluorescent bulbs are classified according to their percentage of UVB
output. For tropical and sub-tropical reptiles, 5% bulbs (Repti Glo 5.0) are perfectly
adequate, provided they are correctly sited, changed regularly, and the number
of hours of exposure is sufficient. 10-12 hours daily has proven a satisfactory
exposure level for most species. Animals living in deserts, which are areas with
high UVB levels, should be exposed to 10% UVB bulbs (Repti Glo 10.0). We also
recommend the Repti Glo 10.0 when the distance from the bulb to the animal exceeds
30 cm (12") or when the bulbs are placed above a dense ventilation screen.
The Repti Glo 2.0 emits very little UVB light (2%), in most cases not sufficient
for vitamin D3 synthesis. The higher the UV output, the less visual light is emitted.
The light also gets a bluer appearance. It
is recommended to combine a high UVB output (Repti Glo 5.0 and 10.0) with a very
high visual light output (Repti Glo 2.0) for optimal results.
Fluorescent
bulbs do not provide sufficient heat. A separate heat source is required in addition
(ex: incandescent basking lamp).

Porceline Wire Clamp Lamp
. Heat-resistant porcelain socket
. Rated for
up to 250 Watts
. Ideal for use with Heat Wave Lamps (ceramic heat emitters),
self-ballasted mercury vapour bulbs, or regular incandescent bulbs
The
fixture is an important aspect of the lighting and heating system, ensuring the
safety and proper function of the applied light or heat source.
Exo Terra
uses only heat-resistant porcelain sockets for its heat and light sources with
'screw-in' type fittings. The
Exo Terra Wire Light has a heat resistant porcelain socket designed to withstand
up to 250 Watts. Ideal for use with Heat Wave Lamps (ceramic heat emitters), self-ballasted
mercury vapour bulbs, and all types of regular incandescent bulbs. The wire guard
prevents unnecessary heat build-up.
