What are the benefits of using the Exo Terra Reptile UVB200 T5 VHO?

The Exo Terra Reptile UVB200 T5 VHO provides reptiles with balanced UVA and UVB exposure, supporting their natural basking behaviors while preventing overexposure. It is specifically designed for species that require controlled UV intake, ensuring they receive the necessary levels without overheating.

The bulb ensures prolonged UV output for 12 or more months and emits stronger UVA and UVB rays compared to traditional T8 bulbs. This allows reptiles to regulate their exposure effectively, optimising their body temperature and metabolic needs. With enhanced UVB penetration, it is ideal for use in taller terrariums or enclosures with denser screens.
