T5 UVB Light Unit Kit 7% GYPR

T5 UVB tube and lamp fixture. Essential to minimise the risk of health complications such as Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD) in many reptile species. High output of light which emits further than comparable T8 tubes. Also provides UVA rays which assist in the stimulation of appetite, digestion and breeding. Includes 30cm link cable which can be used to link multiple reflectors and run from one power source. UVB output reduces over time - tube should be replaced every 12 months. Replacement tubes available. UVB gradient: Just as it is important to provide a temperature gradient to your reptile, it is equally important to provide a UV-gradient. That is, areas of their tank should have little to no UV exposure. Therefore it is often best to get a UV tube slightly shorter than your tank (for example, a 90cm UVB light for a 120cm tank) and position it to one side
