FAQs

How often should I replace the bulb?

Replace the T5 UVB bulb every 6-12 months, or as recommended by the bulb manufacturer, to ensure optimal UVB output.

Can I use other brands of T5 bulbs?

Yes, this fixture is compatible with most T5 linear fluorescent bulbs, but it's optimized for use with Exo Terra Reptile UVB VHO T5 Bulbs.

How do I clean the fixture?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the fixture and reflector. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Is the linking cable included?

No, the linking cable is sold separately if you wish to connect multiple fixtures.

Where should I place the fixture in relation to my reptile?

The fixture should be placed above the terrarium, at a distance appropriate for your reptile species' UVB requirements. Refer to your reptile's care guide or consult with a reptile expert for specific recommendations.

Troubleshooting

Check the power connection and ensure the fixture is plugged into a working outlet. Verify that the bulb is correctly installed.
