The complete lighting side of an aquatic turtle setup in one box: a dual-socket dome fixture, a splashproof halogen basking lamp and a ReptiSun 5.0 UVB compact fluorescent. Heat and UVB are both required — heat lets the turtle raise its body temperature and dry off, UVB lets it use dietary calcium — and this kit is the version that covers both.
What's included
- Mini Combo Deep Dome dual lamp fixture — two independently switched sockets.
- Repti Tuff Splashproof Halogen Lamp, 50W — built for the splash zone.
- ReptiSun 5.0 UVB Mini Compact Fluorescent, 13W.
Setting it up
- Mount over a dry basking platform such as a Turtle Dock — a turtle needs to leave the water entirely to bask properly.
- Check surface temperature with a thermometer rather than guessing.
- Replace the UVB lamp every 6 months. It will keep lighting long after the UVB has gone.
Replacement lamps: ReptiSun 5.0 compact. More in Reptile Heating & Lighting.
