Zilla Pro-Series Desert Terrarium Reptile UVA and UVB Flourescent Coil Bulb – 20 Watt

Description

The Zilla Desert Series Mini Compact Coil Bulb (20 Watt) is a convenient UVB light source for small reptile enclosures. This compact fluorescent coil bulb emits essential UVB rays that desert-dwelling reptiles (like uromastyx, collared lizards, or beardies) need for proper calcium metabolism and bone health. It mimics the intense sunlight of arid environments, helping prevent metabolic bone disease by enabling vitamin D3 synthesis. Simply screw it into a standard light fixture – its compact coil design saves space and fits well in smaller terrariums or vivarium hoods. In addition to UVB, it provides bright illumination without excessive heat, making it energy-efficient. Use it alongside a heat bulb to create a complete desert habitat lighting setup that keeps your reptile both healthy and beautifully lit.
