Size/Type

Zoo Med's ReptiSun HO T5 Terrarium Hoods are designed to provide your pet reptiles with the UVB and UVA they need in an efficient, long-lasting lamp. High Output (HO) T5 fluorescent lamps provide UVB penetration at greater distances, making these hoods an ideal choice for taller terrarium tanks and cages.

  • New low profile design is only 1" tall with a highly polished curved reflector for increased lamp efficiency
  • Energy efficient T5 HO electronic ballast for rapid start and maximum llight & UVB output

The included T5 HO lamp is the strongest ReptiSun lamp available, is 2 times stronger than T8 fluorescent lamps, and provides UVB, UVA and visible light for your reptile. The lighting hood features a low profile design and uses an energy efficient T5 HO electronic ballast for rapid startup and maximum lamp performance. A highly polished curved reflector increases the lamp's efficiency.

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!

Reptisun 5.0 HO - 15 watt / 12"

Always follow all safety instructions when setting up and operating your terrarium light hood.

    I'm not sure if it was the new UVB setup or the dimmable heat lamp fixture and hotter bulb, but my dragon is MUCH happier and more active than he's been since the weather turned cooler. He's on the prowl and eating regularly again, the terrarium setup looks more professional, and the bulbs should last twice as long now. My only complaint is that I didn't know it came with a bulb, but now I just have an extra to use in 12 months.

    works well

    This product actually came with a bulb and I had ordered one as well. The light give great ambiance to the tank without hurting my Gecko's eyes. I only leave it on for 12 hours a day and off for 12 and it is set on a timer. Works great and fits well on top of tank.
