Find a productProduct description
This 13 W spiral UVB lamp is intended for keepers of tropical and subtropical reptiles and selected amphibians. It supplies UV-A and UV-B radiation (5% UVB) to a terrarium with a compact E27 fitting, which supports the animal's basic physiological functions.
Why it matters
- UVB 5% supports appetite, digestion and reproduction, according to the manufacturer.
- UVB radiation drives vitamin D3 synthesis, which the animal needs to absorb calcium at a proper level.
- UV light also contributes to natural skin coloration in reptiles and amphibians.
- The manufacturer recommends replacing the bulb at least once a year, so the UVB output stays within its specified range.

What it works with
The lamp is designed for tropical geckos such as the Madagascar day gecko (Felsuma), Williams' gecko and other tropical geckos, as well as young Yemen chameleons and some amphibians. Position the animal within 40 cm of the bulb, and do not place glass or plastic between the lamp and the animal, as these filter out UVB.
