Product Description
The Exo Terra Natural Light Compact Fluorescent Terrarium Lamp is a premium full spectrum daylight bulb engineered to replicate natural sunlight within your reptile or amphibian enclosure. Featuring an exceptionally high Color Rendering Index of 98 CRI and a 6700K color temperature, this 13 Watt lamp provides superior visual light output that enhances the true colors of your animals and habitat. Designed primarily as a visual light source rather than a heat provider, it emits beneficial UVA radiation that actively stimulates appetite, activity, and reproductive behaviors in your exotic pets. This daylight bulb is highly recommended for all terrarium types, particularly for planted vivariums as its precise spectrum promotes lush, healthy plant growth. It is an ideal lighting choice for low UVB requirement species such as snakes, frogs, toads, salamanders, and nocturnal reptiles. For a complete habitat setup, this energy efficient compact fluorescent bulb pairs perfectly with dedicated basking heat lamps and high output UVB bulbs to satisfy the complete physiological needs of your terrarium inhabitants.
FAQ
Q1. What is the Exo Terra Natural Light compact lamp?
Ans: The Exo Terra Natural Light is a 13 Watt full spectrum daylight bulb previously known as the Repti Glo 2.0. It delivers a high visual light output with a 6700K color temperature and a 98 Color Rendering Index to simulate natural sunlight, making it excellent for planted terrariums and general reptile visibility.
Q2. Does this lamp provide enough UVB for desert reptiles?
Ans: No, this specific lamp produces very high UVA and visual light but has a very low UVB output. Desert reptiles or basking species requiring intense UVB will need this bulb paired with a dedicated secondary UVB bulb, such as an Exo Terra 5.0 or 10.0 equivalent.
Q3. How often should this terrarium bulb be replaced?
Ans: It is highly recommended to replace this compact fluorescent bulb every 6 to 12 months. Even though the bulb may continue to emit visible light after this period, the beneficial UVA radiation wavelengths degrade naturally over time and lose their effectiveness.
Q4. Is this Exo Terra lamp an authentic USA import available in India?
Ans: Yes, this product is a 100 percent authentic USA import. Rudra Retails sources these premium Exo Terra terrarium lamps directly from trusted suppliers in the USA, ensuring Indian hobbyists receive genuine international quality pet care items.
Q5. What animals benefit most from this full spectrum light?
Ans: This lamp is ideal for animals with low UVB requirements, including various snakes, frogs, toads, salamanders, and nocturnal species. It is also perfect for tarantulas, invertebrates, and live tropical terrarium plants that thrive under bright, daylight conditions.
