FAQ

What is the Exo Terra Daytime Heat Lamp used for?

It is a daytime terrarium bulb designed to provide visible illumination and supplemental heat for compatible reptiles, amphibians, and other terrarium animals.

Does the Daytime Heat Lamp provide heat?

Yes. The bulb produces heat that can help increase the temperature within the enclosure and create a warmer area for thermoregulation.

Does the Exo Terra Daytime Heat Lamp provide UVB?

No. A daytime heat lamp should not be considered a substitute for dedicated UVB lighting. Reptile species that require UVB exposure need an appropriate UVB source in addition to their heat lamp.

How do I choose the correct wattage?

Choose the wattage based on your animal's species-specific temperature requirements, enclosure size, ventilation, and ambient room temperature. Use accurate thermometers to monitor the warm and cool areas of the habitat.

Should the Daytime Heat Lamp stay on at night?

Generally, daytime lighting should be switched off at night to maintain an appropriate day-and-night cycle. If your animal requires additional nighttime warmth, use a suitable non-light-producing heat source according to its husbandry requirements.
