Product Description

Komodo T8 UVB Bulbs are essential lighting solutions designed to recreate natural sunlight for captive reptiles. These high quality fluorescent tubes provide the vital UVB rays required for your pets to synthesize Vitamin D3, which is absolutely critical for healthy calcium absorption and preventing conditions like Metabolic Bone Disease.

Available in both 5% and 10% UVB strengths across a range of wattages, these tubes cater perfectly to different habitat setups. The lower strength option is ideal for forest, rainforest, or shade dwelling species that require gentler exposure, while the stronger 10% bulb provides the intense light required by desert dwelling and heavy basking reptiles.

The linear design of the T8 tube ensures a wide, even spread of beneficial light across the entire enclosure, eliminating dark corners and promoting natural active behaviours. These reliable tubes stimulate appetite, improve activity levels, and enhance the beautiful natural coloration of your pets, ensuring your reptile habitat remains safe, bright, and healthy.

Suitable For

Reptiles requiring beneficial UVB lighting

Desert dwelling species such as bearded dragons and tortoises

Forest and rainforest species including chameleons, geckos, and water dragons

How To Use

Install the bulb into a compatible T8 electronic controller or canopy unit of the matching wattage. Position the tube securely inside the vivarium or terrarium, ensuring it sits at the correct recommended distance from your reptile's main basking area to avoid overheating. Always turn off the main power supply before fitting or replacing the bulb. For optimal pet health, it is highly recommended to replace these T8 fluorescent tubes every nine months, because the beneficial UVB output will naturally decline over time even if the bulb still emits visible light.
