Why is UVB important?
Reptiles need UVB for Vitamin D production and calcium metabolism. Without UVB, reptiles can develop Metabolic Bone Disease in 6 months or less. UVB, along with proper temperatures, will enable your reptiles to make Vitamin D and process calcium from their diet.
Why is UVA important?
Reptiles and amphibians can see things that humans can't. UVA is part of the rainbow of colors that reptiles can see. UVA helps to increase animal activity levels, appetite, and reproductive behaviors. Without UVA, they are color blind!
Note: Always follow all safety instructions when setting up and operating your terrarium light hood.

A highly polished, curved reflector in the hood maximizes light efficiency and UVB penetration, allowing you to get the most out of each lamp. This light fixture is ideal for large terrariums, terrariums with live plants, and any species of reptile or amphibian that benefits from bright, visible light and UVB exposure.
High output LEDs allow you to specialize the hood for any scenario or terrarium inhabitant. Four 1 watt 6,500K Daylight LEDs create brilliant, truly naturalistic lighting. 465 nm Blue LED simulates nighttime lighting with a stunning lunar effect and great nocturnal viewing. Two 0.5 watt 620 nm Red LEDs provide the optimum wavelength to stimulate photosynthesis for robust live plant growth. Switches on the hood allow you to control the LEDs independently.
Sliding rails allow you to customize the hoods footprint to fit a variety of terrarium tank sizes, and an optional stainless steel "aircraft cable" suspension kit is included, allowing you to position the hood over more open reptile or amphibian habitats.
