The Reptile Nova UVB 5.0 lamp is specially calibrated to emit the correct intensity of ultraviolet radiation needed by reptiles from tropical forests. In these environments, dense vegetation filters direct sunlight, and this particular lamp accurately replicates those conditions. With a power of 13W, it provides the necessary energy for your animals’ biological functions, ensuring they receive the radiation they would find in their natural habitat to remain active and healthy.

The provision of UVB radiation is critical for the photosynthesis of vitamin D3 in the skin of reptiles, which in turn allows for the absorption of calcium from food. The use of the Reptile Nova 13W effectively helps prevent Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD), a common condition in reptiles living in captivity without proper lighting. Additionally, the emission of UVA radiation stimulates appetite, activity, and reproductive behavior, improving the overall well-being of your pets.

Thanks to its compact design, the lamp is only a few inches (") long, making it suitable for most terrariums, even the smallest ones. It features a standard E27 screw base, allowing for easy installation in common sockets or specialized reptile lighting fixtures. The fluorescent technology it uses ensures low energy consumption and long lifespan, while the stable color performance highlights the natural shades of your reptiles, making the terrarium look more vibrant and impressive.
