Fluker’s Sun Glow 10.0 UVB Coil Bulb for Desert Reptiles

The Fluker’s Sun Glow 10.0 UVB Coil Bulb is specifically designed to provide the ideal balance of UVB and UVA radiation for desert-dwelling reptiles and amphibians. This bulb emits UVB radiation in the 290-310 nm range, essential for synthesizing vitamin D3, which prevents and combats Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD) in captive reptiles. It also produces UVA radiation at safe levels, stimulating natural behaviors like increased activity, reproduction, and appetite. Whether you own a bearded dragon, tegu, uromastyx, or another desert species, this compact fluorescent bulb is an essential addition to your reptile’s habitat.

Its balanced UVB/UVA output not only supports reptile health but can also boost the growth of live plants in vivariums and terrariums. Plus, it’s easy to install with a self-ballasted design, ensuring compatibility with standard screw-base fixtures.
