The D3 Compact Reptile Lamp has been designed to satisfy the UV requirements of reptiles which rely on skin synthesis of Vitamin D3.
This single-ended lamp with a standard E27 screw fitting can be used in small cages, where installation of tube lighting may not be convenient or practical. You could also use the lamp in a medium to large cage to create a basking area within the enclosure.
This 23-Watt energy-saving lamp actually has an output equivalent to a regular 120-Watt bulb, and does not require the use of a ballast, as in the case of regular fluorescent tubes.
When a turtle or tortoise owner brings their sick animal to the veterinarian, the cause of illness can almost always be traced back to one of two causes, improper housing or improper nutrition.
Absolutely essential to their health and growth, UV plays a key role in the production of Vitamin D3, which is necessary in the absorption and metabolism of calcium as well as other essential vitamins and minerals.
Bearded Dragons originate in Australia. The most common species in the pet industry is the Inland Bearded Dragon, Pogona vitticeps, which was formerly called Amphibolurus vitticeps.
