Zoo Med Mini Deep Dome Lamp Fixture
Reptiles, being ectothermic or "cold-blooded," rely on external heat sources such as the sun to regulate their body temperature. This warmth is essential for digestion, overall health, and proper bodily functions. As they cannot generate their own heat, providing the right temperature through heat lamps is crucial for their well-being.
Ensure your reptile stays comfortable with the Zoo Med Mini Deep Dome Lamp Fixture. This product is designed with a long reflector dome that extends past the bulb’s face, keeping the bulb safely recessed. Its polished aluminum interior enhances light and heat output for maximum efficiency.
Note: Bulb is not included.
Maximum bulb wattage: 100w
Diameter: 5.5"
Usage Instructions:
Screw the bulb securely into the fixture’s socket. Connect the cord to a power outlet or timer if required, and test the on/off switch to confirm the bulb lights up. Position the fixture on the mesh screen of your terrarium, placing it over the basking spot on either the far right or left side to establish a proper temperature gradient. Switch on to start using.
For optimal temperature monitoring, pair this fixture with the Zoo Med ReptiTemp Digital Infrared Thermometer available at MorphMarket to ensure your reptile’s basking area is at the ideal temperature.
