The advantage of the Exo Terra Repti Glo Compact Fluorescent bulb is its size and the fact that it is self-ballasted. A regular screw fitting is sufficient to operate these bulbs. The spiral shape of the bulb enables vertical or horizontal mounting without compromising performance.
It is recommended to combine a high UVB output (Repti Glo 5.0 and 10.0) with a very high visual light output (Repti Glo 2.0) for optimal results. Fluorescent bulbs do not provide sufficient heat. A separate heat source is required in addition
- Ideal spectrum for all reptiles & amphibians
- Stimulates plant growth
- High visual light output
- Stimulates appetite, activity and reproductive behaviour through UVA radiation
- High Colour Rendering Index of 98 (CRI) - 6700 K
- Recommended in combination with Repti Glo 5.0 or Repti Glo 10.0, depending on the reptile's requirements
The Exo Terra Repti Glo 2.0 is a general light source with a high visual light output and a very high colour rendering index (CRI), but a lower UVB radiation. This bulb is suitable for snakes, all amphibians (frogs, toads and salamanders) and nocturnal animals. Plants will thrive under this light as well. It is also a perfect complementary light to a UVB bulb to boost visual light.
To fit this range of fluorescent bulbs, both linear and compact, Exo Terra developed a complete line of terrarium tops and linear fluorescent bulb controllers. Almost all of these fluorescent fixtures have multiple fittings to enable a combination of different Repti Glo bulbs in order to simulate any micro habitat suitable for a specific species.
The Exo Terra Compact Tops (PT-2225 / PT-2226 / PT-2227) are perfectly suited for the Exo Terra Compact Bulbs.
