Find a productProduct description
This 24 W T5 fluorescent tube is intended for keepers of desert and semi-desert reptiles who need UVB available across the enclosure rather than only under a heat source. Its 55 cm length and 16 mm diameter fit standard setups, and its stated effective range is up to 50 cm.
Why it matters
- Full-length UVB output: the tube emits UVB along its entire length, so the cool and warm zones of the enclosure both receive it.
- Calcium metabolism: the UVB emission is described as a source of radiation needed for calcium metabolism in desert species.
- UVA component: the UVA output is stated to stimulate appetite, activity and reproductive behaviour.
- Strong UV profile: the product is designed to reproduce the high UV exposure desert reptiles receive in nature, where dry air, open sky and lack of shaded vegetation increase it.

What it works with
The tube is suited to desert terrariums and semi-desert setups for heliothermic reptiles, with the 50 cm effective range matching enclosures up to that length in which the lamp can cover the basking and cooler areas. Because the UVB output is rated at 10.0, it belongs to the stronger end of the T5 range and should be installed in a fixture that holds the tube at the intended distance from the animal.
