How much UV light do reptiles need?

The amount of UV light reptiles need depends on their species. Desert reptiles like bearded dragons require higher UVB exposure, while forest species like crested geckos need lower levels. Most reptiles benefit from 10 to 12 hours of UV light per day to mimic natural daylight cycles.

Is UV light good for reptiles?

Yes, UV light is essential for reptiles. UVB helps them produce vitamin D3, which supports calcium absorption and prevents metabolic bone disease. UVA also plays a role in regulating mood, appetite, and activity levels.

How much UVB does my reptile need?

The amount of UVB needed depends on the species. Tropical and forest reptiles usually require 2.0 to 5.0 UVB bulbs, while desert reptiles need 7.0 to 10.0 UVB bulbs to match their natural sun exposure.

How long do 10.0 UVB bulbs last?

Most 10.0 UVB bulbs should be replaced every 6 to 12 months, even if they still produce visible light. Over time, the UVB output diminishes, reducing its effectiveness in supporting reptile health.
