Product Description

Replicate the blazing intensity of natural desert sunlight with the Arcadia T5 D3+ Desert 12% UVB. This high-output, full-spectrum fluorescent lamp is engineered by world experts to simulate the exact solar radiation found in open, arid environments. Designed specifically for sun-seeking reptiles that require high levels of ultraviolet light, it delivers a flicker-free, powerful output that stimulates natural behaviors, enhances biological health, and showcases your pet's true, brilliant colors.

High 12% UVB Content: Specially calibrated to support desert reptile species in Ferguson Zones 3 and 4, providing the intensive ultraviolet energy required for their specialized needs.
Full Spectrum Performance: Closely mirrors the natural solar spectrum, combining high levels of UVB with vital UVA to stimulate a healthy appetite, voluntary basking, and active breeding behaviors.
Efficient D3 Synthesis: Triggers the natural production of Vitamin D3, allowing your reptile to safely absorb and utilize calcium to eliminate the risk of Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD).
Advanced T5 Flicker-Free Technology: Operates on a high-frequency circuit to ensure smooth, continuous illumination that matches a reptile's advanced visual capabilities without causing eye strain.
Excellent Natural Color Rendering: Projects a crisp, bright light that brings out the vibrant, natural coloration of your exotic pets and their enclosure decor.
Extended 12-Month Lifespan: Formulated using premium phosphors to guarantee a full year of effective, life-sustaining UV output before a replacement is needed.

Suitable for

Bearded Dragons
Uromastyx
Frilled Lizards
Desert Monitors
Tortoises
Other sun-loving, desert-dwelling species

Did you know?

Glass and fine mesh lids are highly effective UV filters! Standard glass blocks almost 100% of UVB rays, and fine mesh can block up to 30% to 50% of the light's intensity. To make sure your desert reptile actually gets the full 12% UVB benefits, always mount your T5 fixture underneath the mesh inside the enclosure, or adjust your basking branch height to compensate for the reduction if the fixture has to sit on top of a screen!
