Many reptiles and amphibious species require warm lighting zones under which you can warm up and recharge UV light. As in the great outdoors, these zones should be UV rich and stable. Arcadia presents you the new UV mini basking lamp. This lamp is ideal for smaller installations with low height and guarantees a balanced release of UV-A and UV-B as well as ideal heat radiation. The 80 W mini basking lamp has been developed for use in small wooden vivariations and for mounting over wire mesh covers. Such facilities are known to quickly suffer from overheating. In addition, heat and UV sources are often attached too close to the animal due to the low height of the device. The 80 W UV mini basking lamp is an energy-efficient, high-performance metal vapour lamp for mounting in wooden vivariums and glass vivariums with wire mesh cover. It helps reptile and amphibian owners create an ideal lighting and heat situation, even in small environments with a height of 20-30 cm

## Features

- BASKING LAMP - The Arcadia D3 UV 80w Basking Lamp provides UVB, UVA visible light and heat so there is no need for a separate UV and heat source! This D3 Basking Lamp can be used for many species of reptiles including Bearded Dragons, Tortoises and Iguanids.
- MULTIPLE BENEFITS - Heat is important for reptiles to be able to function, reproduce and maintain a healthy immune system. This basking lamp produces UV-B which aids the synthesis of Vitamin D3 and helps to prevent metabolic bone disease. The lamp also produces UVA which regulates the D3 cycles, activates colour vision and can help to increase feeding, mating, and other natural behaviours.
- INSTALLATION - The Arcadia D3 Basking Lamp is designed for use above a large well-ventilated vivaria. We suggest a minimum width of 60cm (24") and length of 100-120cm to ensure there is an adequate temperature gradient and cool area.
- FOR BEST RESULTS - To allow for accurate regulation without needing to raise or lower the Basking Lamp, combine with a species appropriate linear T5 UV system. The Arcadia Halogen Basking Flood Lamp should also be connected to an appropriate thermostat.
- UV EXPOSURE - Both reptiles and amphibians need both UVB and UVA light to live healthy lifestyles. To ensure safe UV exposure, the minimum distance from lamp to reptile is 20cm (8"). We recommend a minimum vivarium height of around 50-60cm (20"-24").

Kaufe die Arcadia D3 80W jedes Jahr nach dem Winterschlaf unserer Moschusschildkröte. Sie liegt fast täglich mehrere Stunden zum Sonnen unter der Lampe. Gab bisher nie Probleme bezüglich Qualität und Leistung. Würde sie immer weiterempfehlen.
