Asking questions is the best way to learn how to create the best habitat for your reptile or amphibian. Whether you are a novice or expert, there is always more to discover. Over time you can find more ways to improve your terrarium and give your pet a home in which he or she will thrive. Here are a few places to start.
To build the best home for your pet you need to know as much as possible about where they originate. Recreating their natural environment will help them feel comfortable and help them ease into their natural habits. Does your pet originate from a tropical or desert environment? Are there a lot of rocks? These questions will help you with every aspect of your terrarium, lighting or otherwise.
How big is your terrarium? Different bulbs give off various ranges and levels of heat and light. This rhythm keeps sleep cycles and hormone release in check.

Do you sell the LED types? Either way, we would very strongly advise you not to make your own device for this purpose and instead purchase a properly certified device.
UVC light is extremely damaging to the skin and eyes. No, standard UVA black lights have no germicidal properties at all. Germicidal lamps have a specific wavelength of Do you sell these? I need mm and mm, with two-prong pins.
We have installed 12 no. UVs for a fish pond. As soon as we start up, all the bulbs are flickering at random intervals. These UVs has got electronic ballasts and there is no voltage drop as well. Can someone advise the reason. Supplier said I need to replace all the ballasts and the bulbs as both might have been damaged.
Before replacing would like to know the cause. Hi Can I use those lamps in sneaker cleaning? If yes, then which one? It would be used as a sole whitening method with cleaning product Sole restorer Tarrago. UVC light cannot be exposed to human skin as it is dangerous and these types of lightbulbs can only be used in specifically designed sanitation or air purification units. DO NOT install these lights outside of such equipment. As germicidal UVC light is dangerous to be exposed to eyes or skin, so dangerous in fact, that I suspect any handheld UVC germicidal lamp could be fake and only contain a standard disco-type UV light source that has no germicidal properties at all.
The only type of germicidal apparatus that should be used needs to be fully enclosed and allow not light to escape. I bought hair lightener spray. What type of bulb would duplicate the sun exposure to have the lightener develop? Maybe they can recommend a Kelvin temperature K or UV wavelength range in nano-metres nm?
I need to activate a bleaching process that we have traditionally used the sun to complete. What is the best type of light? Thank you! However, this type of light is very dangerous and has negative health implications if used incorrectly. Do you have any light emits only UVB radiation? I am intended to use with supplementation of UVB light for layer production. If I have a gel nails curing unit nm I use for curing UV resin.
Wavelength is directly related to energy, with high wavelengths containing less energy and lower wavelengths being much more energetic. Light falls between microwaves and X-rays on the electromagnetic spectrum, and is further broken down into infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet. There are three types of ultraviolet radiation, two of which are important to reptiles. UVC has the shortest wavelength and is energetic enough to be dangerous even in small exposure. However, virtually all UVC from the sun is blocked by the atmosphere.
UVB has a wavelength of nm. Many reptiles, especially diurnal species originating from the tropics, rely on UVB to synthesize the precursor to Vitamin D3 in their skin. In general, these reptiles are unable to gain enough benefit from Vitamin D3 ingested as part of the diet, and for this reason they must bask in the sun, or in captivity, under UVB-emitting light sources.
Reptiles rely on Vitamin D3 in order to absorb the calcium in their diet and use it for various physiological functions. A Vitamin D3 deficiency will eventually result in developmental problems, deformities, and difficulties in normal body function which can lead to severe illness and even death.

Full Spectrum Bulbs The designation "full spectrum" generally refers to the spectrum of visible light, so while these bulbs are excellent for applications where natural-looking light is desired they provide no UVB for reptiles.
Types of Light The various types of light are characterized by differing wavelengths, which are expressed in nanometers nm. What is UVB Radiation?
