Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 High Output UVB Bulb is ideal for reptiles housed in larger vivaria whose natural environment and behavior patterns necessitate increased UVB exposure.
Features: Provides an effective UVB source without providing excess heat; great for old world chameleons and other reptiles requiring increased UVB exposure without higher temperatures; allows UVB assisted photo conversion up to 20" from the lamp's surface (compared to 12" on the Reptisun 5.0); allows turtles and tortoises the proper UVB wavelength.
Did you know that taller cages, screen cages, and tank covers can reduce the amount of UVB rays getting to your reptile?
On August 19, 2010:
The ReptiSun is the only UV bulb I would ever buy. A must-have for beardies! Well worth the price paid.
On August 16, 2010:
The Reptisun is highly recommended for Bearded Dragons. Other lights cause eye damage and over all poor health. I would ask anyone with Beardies to get this light for your pet
On August 12, 2010:
I have been a die-hard Mercury Vapor Bulb user since I began with bearded dragons years ago. However in the past couple of years and all the issues there have been with some of the best reputable MVB's...I decide to give the Reptisun 10.0's a try. "I can not tell you how amazed I was with this product." I have now switched all 14 enclosures over to Reptisuns...even my special boys, Zak-n-Wheezie. I no longer have the mind set that the only good bulbs are Mercury Vapor. This is a great product for beardies and owners! I will continue to recommend it. It is also energy efficient which with 14 enclosures is a BIG plus. :)
On August 7, 2010:
I am making a new cage for my Bearded Dragon and this light just makes him feel right at home. :)
On August 3, 2010:
Bulb came very well insulated in packaging. Arrived in perfect condition and I have noticed my bearded dragon has a lot more energy and spunk since installing this uvb light. I would suggest anybody that doesn't have one and owns a bearded dragon to get one asap. Also, petmountain has the lowest price for this product out of all the stores I have shopped.
On August 1, 2010:
This Light is great. I can tell when it's about time to get a new one because my lizard does start to "lag". once i pop a new one it he's recharged!
On July 30, 2010:
And they ship quick, too. Can't beat that price with a stick, Petco is easily twice as much.
On July 27, 2010:
This bulb was widely suggested on a forum I frequent, as was Pet Mountain. I price compared and could not believe the savings! I'll never buy these bulbs anywhere else again. These are by far the best bulbs for bearded dragons and other lizards. Their quality is unmatched right now, and these are the only bulbs, and Pet Mountain, is the only company, I trust to buy them from!
On July 22, 2010:
We use these bulbs for all of our animals that require UVA/UVB lighting. It's by far the best bulb we have ever used. Our dragons and savs eat and bask more because they love these UV rays! :)
On July 14, 2010:
This bulb is 100% with out a doubt the best bulb you can buy for your Bearded Dragons. I swear by it and will never use anything else! Pet Mountain offers it at the lowest price around!
On July 5, 2010:
The best bulb for your money, hands down. Perfect for my taller tank.
On June 29, 2010:
I have used this bulb for approximately a year and a half and I love it. This bulb helped my beardie overcome health problems due to insufficient UV lighting and it's the only one for me.
On June 28, 2010:
My Beardy loves this light. I used to use only a basking Light that produced UVb, but now I use both and hes very happy.
On June 26, 2010:
These bulbs are perfect for a bearded dragon along with zoo med basking light and your all set and the best quality Made in Germany. Pet mountain has the best prices as always and it was pack well and shipping was only $6.99. I will be buying more in the future.
On June 18, 2010:
reptisun makes the best light for little beardies. mine love it. if their not basking in their zoomed spot light, their chillin on a hammock under their reptisun 10.0!!!!!!!
On June 16, 2010:
This is an excellent purchase. The price is great. I was able to purchase light bulbs for all my lizards for the price of 1 bulb at the store.
On May 25, 2010:
This is perfect if you're looking for a lamp with high UVA/UVB output. Do not use the compact lamps; those are not good and by the time you realize it your lizard will already be sick. Zoo Med's high output, full spectrum lamps are the best.
On May 16, 2010:
The Reptisun 10.0 is by far the best light out there for bearded dragons. HIGHLY recommend this product!
On April 26, 2010:
My box turtle has been around for almost 9 years now, thanks to these bulbs. I had several other turtles which all developed calcium deficiency due to lack of these uva/uvb bulbs.
On April 25, 2010:
GREAT PRICE!!! AND FAST SHIPPING!
On April 20, 2010:
This product is awesome and is working great my dragon loves it! Recommends distance is 6-8 inches though.
On April 20, 2010:
Best tube bulb out there by far!
On February 23, 2010:
I have a Greek tortoise and he had been acting more sluggish this winter. His UVB bulb was due for replacement but the lamp had been getting increasingly hard to find bulbs for. I decided to go with the Zoo Med name and the excellent reviews for the 10.0 UVB Terrarium bulb. A week later I received my new lamp and bulb. Within 5 minutes of setting it up on my 40 gallon long terrarium, Roomba became a happy active boy, more so than he was even with a new bulb for the old lamp he used. If you have a tortoise I highly recommend this lamp! I bought the 20-inch hood which takes the 18-inch bulb. It is not bulky and seems to be sturdily made. I am thrilled with my purchase and so is Roomba!
On February 11, 2010:
Package arrived safe and on time! I can tell the increased activity with my bearded dragon after using this bulb! I'm glad I ordered to, so I can always have a fresh one available!
On January 15, 2010:
A+ This is the best light you can get for your reptiles. Never had a problem. Repeat buyer.
On January 6, 2010:
Very happy with price, and delivery. I will purchase from again and recommend to any pet owner. Much recommended!
On December 23, 2009:
This is the bulb all reptile owners should use if your pet needs UVA/UVB. Other lamps that claim to provide it do not come close to what this one does. Do your pet a favor and get this bulb!
On December 18, 2009:
When you find a good product that works, you stick with it. That's why I purchase Zoo Med UVB lights.
On December 18, 2009:
I have 4 little friends that benefit from this product -- keeps them happy and looking good.
On December 9, 2009:
Great light to have for a small or large tank. My beardie loves the heat and light that it gives off and is thriving.A++++
On December 2, 2009:
ZooMed would be advised to change the model or upc code for this product to reflect that it is NOT the same lamp as the T12 that this T8 replaces. I purchased it thinking it was the same lamp I had before since the model and UPC have not changed. Also if anyone thinks their T12 fixture will work this lamp you will probably find out differently. Unless you have an electronic start ballast most magnetic ballasts designed for T12 lamps will not work with this lamp. You will either need to buy a new fixture or get a T8 ballast to make this lamp work. I purchased a new fixture and for the first day the lamps flickered several times a minute. It has since settled down but I have no idea if it was the lamps or the fixture causing my problem. The light may be brighter than the T12 lamp it replaced but better information about the lamp would have helped.
On November 17, 2009:
These are the ONLY florescent lights I will use with my bearded dragons. They have excellent UVB output and are affordable. The only downside is having to replace them every six months. Other than that, they are great - my dragons are all healthy and happy because of their Repti Sun bulbs.
On October 31, 2009:
I got two of these bulbs (18") for my adult bearded dragon. His color has improved and he is much more active. This was 6months ago and the bulbs have started to dull, but Im just going to order two more! Great product!
On October 20, 2009:
I've been getting these from here for years, and have always been very pleased. The Reptisun 10.0 has the highest uW/cm2 out there, in other words, it produces the most UVB rays of any fluorescent UVB bulb. My Bearded Dragon loves it! And, though I've shopped around several times, I always buy from here because this is the cheapest price I've ever seen.
On October 12, 2009:
Reotisun 10.0 UVB bulb is perfect for my bearded dragon to prevent MBD. She also likes the light! I highly recommend buying this for your bearded dragon or any other reptile requiring high UVA output.
On October 6, 2009:
We have been using Repti Sun 10.0 bulbs ever since our Bearded Dragon was a baby. I think they are the best tube UBV's out there. You can't beat the deals at Pet Mountain, the same bulb cost $49.99 at my local pet store! I highly recommend the bulb and Pet Mountain :)
On September 2, 2009:
I live within 30 minutes of 8 different pet stores, including your big chains. Not one store sold the ReptiSun! And come to find out a lot of the other bulbs can harm a bearded dragon, so to keep your beardie healthy and happy, ordering this bulb online is the only way to go!
On September 1, 2009:
I had a Reptiglo 10.0 but my beardie kept hiding from it. I got advice from www.beardeddragon.org that I should use the Reptisun 10.0. They were right! My lizard doesn't hide any more, and she's eating better and more too! Amazing... Shipped on time, no BS. Petmountain gave me what I ordered when I expected it.
On August 5, 2009:
Amazing bulb! Well worth the money. My bearded dragon went from a depressed dull brown to a bright golden orange and is running around and eat his greens better than ever! (He's also pooped more!) I've since changed tanks and needed another UV-B bulb, came right back here and ordered! Best choice for a beardie! He loves it!
On June 24, 2009:
There are many different options for fluorescent UV-emitting bulbs, and this is by far the best. True, it only emits UVA/B for six months, and it must be within 9" of the lizard, but it is much better than those provided by other companies.
On March 29, 2009:
This bulb is amazing, my bearded dragon loves it! Plus, the prices on this site are so great, they are half the amount you'd pay anywhere else. At the petstores, these bulbs go for $60! I am so happy there is a site like pet mountain.
On March 7, 2009:
If you are using the 5.0 you will not see much difference but if you are using another brand you will see more color and more activity out of your lizards with this light. This is the best light i have found for my beardies.
On December 19, 2008:
this is the only UV-B fluorescent i suggest to anyone with a Bearded Dragon. its rays are stronger and safer than any other bulb sold in the U.S.A. period...
On October 12, 2008:
These lights are used in all the dragons and turtle tanks in my house. they work wonderfully with all my reptiles that require uvb lighting
On August 7, 2008:
I highly recommend these light bulbs. I use them for my bearded dragon. I had originally had the compact bulb but noticed that she always closed her eyes. I later found out that the compact bulb often harms the eyes so I immediately switched to these. Even with shipping it was way cheaper than going to Petco or Petsmart.
On February 22, 2008:
This is by far the best bulb on the market to provide your reptiles with the needed UVB. We use a UVB meter to measure how much light our chameleons receive at their perch, and these 10.0 bulbs reach way down into their habitat. Don't settle for anything less. Plus the 48" bulb can cover several of your cages.
On February 8, 2008:
This bulb is the best out there. My beardie thrives with this bulb.
On February 1, 2008:
I use it with all my herps requiring good amounts of UVB
On January 17, 2008:
the price is great. 2 for the price of 1 light from the big name stores. my BD loves it and its price tag. i will be buying more to have on hand. also i will return here to buy all my stuff. "You guy dont need no coupon trick for me to shop here" Shipping was super fast. Thanks for saving me cash. Sincerly Your New Client, Tuan Tran.
On December 23, 2007:
We purchased this in June, 07 because our beardie had a problem with her right front leg. Within 30 days it was back to normal. I wouldn't buy any other, except maybe a megaray.
On November 13, 2007:
This bulb is awesome...i know its a must for my beardie...and he loves it...
On September 27, 2007:
I would recommend this bulb for bearded dragons! The uvb output is far better then others!
On September 20, 2007:
These are the greatest prices I have ever seen!! My beardies love it!!
On September 19, 2007:
Great quality bulbs! Fantastic prices! I found my new source for all my reptile needs!
On September 4, 2007:
I've been using this brand with my Eastern Painted for 2 years now. I do not keep my turtle outdoors so this is the only source of UV he receives. His shell looks super healthy and he's got quite the appetite. I'm getting another to use with my new Box turtle.
On August 31, 2007:
You will not be disappointed.
On August 31, 2007:
I HAVE 3 TURTLES AND ONE BEARDED DRAGON AND USE THE RETISUN 10.0 FOR ALL MY ANIMALS. YOU CAN REALLY SEE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE MOOD OF YOUR PETS. IT ALSO MAKES THEIR COLORS STAND OUT MORE. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY YOUR ANIMALS CAN'T TALK TO YOU SO WHEN YOU BUY THE BEST YOU HAVE PEACE OF MIND THAT YOUR PETS ARE GETTING THE PROPER AMOUNT OF UVB THAT THEY NEED. SO STOP WORRYING, YOU HAVE A REPTISUN 10.0. WITH THE INCREASE IN THE DISTANCE OF RAYS, YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TO WORRY WHETHER YOUR BELOVED PET IS ACTUALLY GETTING ENOUGH UVB AND DON'T FORGET THE REPTISUN 10.0 LASTS TWICE AS LONG THAN OTHER BULBS SAVING YOU MONEY. USE THE REPTISUN 10.0 AND LET THE OTHERS WORRY. GO OUT AND BUY ONE TODAY, YOUR PET DESERVES THE BEST.
On August 24, 2007:
These bulbs have improved my bearded dragons color and energy levels! They have the highest out put and are great for your diurnal reptiles!
On August 9, 2007:
These are the best UVB flourescents available and I haven't seen a better price anywhere! I highly recommend them!!
On August 6, 2007:
I have owned 3 of these bulbs (2 48" and 1 18") and have been very happy with all of them every time! Only reason I don't have one now is because the store I was at when I got my new tank all set up did not carry them and I was in a hurry. Will def. buy one next time I need a new UV though!
On August 3, 2007:
I've tried several different UVB bulbs for my turtle, and this is by far the best one on the market. It has the highest UVB output and lasts longer. My turtle noticed a difference too - he basks more with a Reptisun 10 than with the others. Highly Recommended!
On August 2, 2007:
I ordered my bulbs and I got 6 of them. One of which was defective. I contacted petmountain and they sent a new one out. I would recommend them to anyone
On August 2, 2007:
What a great UVB bulb....EXCELLENT PRICE... Highly recommended...My beardie was very active and receives great UVB from this light....A+
On July 25, 2007:
I've been pricing these lamps at every local pet store. Then I went through the Zoo Med site to find Pet Mountain. They really do have the best prices!
On July 19, 2007:
This is exactly what I've been looking for and it is at a very good price. The cheapest I've seen yet. I have a Russian Tortoise and I think this is perfect for him!! Thank you for this amazing item and GREAT price!!
On July 17, 2007:
When I purchased my Bearded Dragon, I was told to use another UVB bulb. For 6 months I used that bulb and replaced it. Through the duration of my Beardies life I was giving him a proper diet from BeautifulDragons.com and his powdered vitamins (calcium/multi vit) Well even though he was properly cared for, he developed MBD- which stunned the Reptile vet and I. Then when I told him about the UVB bulb that I was using, a light bulb went off and my Vet suggested that it was not the appropriate UVB bulb to use even though the bulb company advertises that is it to be used for bearded dragons also. Then he suggested to me Repti-sun. Needless to say my Beardie has not had any issues and healed quickly from the MBD that he once had. Now I use Repti-sun for all 4 of my Bearded Dragons. This is why I highly recommend it!!
On July 16, 2007:
The Reptisun 10.0 is by far the best uvb light on the market, my beardie loves it!!!
On July 15, 2007:
Though my ReptiSun 10.0 bulbs are still working, I've been advised to change them once a year. I'm ordering a replacement set now. These bulbs have done an excellent job in keeping my 55 Gallon Aquarium for juvenile rescue Aquatic Turtles in a very stable ecosystem. They then make the transition to an outdoor pond with ease, once they are large enough to hold their own with the grown-up turtles. I am more than satisfied with this product.
On July 10, 2007:
These bulbs give the best UV output for my turtles, and the prices are hard to beat!
On July 7, 2007:
I got this bulb for my bearded dragon on the recommendation of just about every herp keeper I spoke with and am so glad I did! Increased activity and appetite were apparent almost immediately.
The price is the cheapest I've seen as well. I shopped around for about a week before purchasing and even with shipping charges the bulb was still $30 cheaper than any store near me and $5 cheaper than the next cheapest online store.
Best money I've spent for my dragon yet!
On July 5, 2007:
I love the 10.0s for my bearded dragons, they are very active and eating even more than usual when under them as opposed to the other 8.0 brands!
I advise this brand and site to all my customers!
On June 29, 2007:
We use these bulbs in our breeder tanks. The output of UVB is next to none!! It makes your reptiles healthy and vibrant. Get your reptile the UV it needs!!
On June 27, 2007:
This bulb is the best fluorescent tube available. I don't know why anyone would order any other bulb; the UVB output clearly puts to shame any other fluorescent tube available. This is the bulb my herp vet recommends!
On June 24, 2007:
Product is just as described! Easy instructions and direct use. The UVB bulb works great!
On June 11, 2007:
The reptisun 10 is the best UVB light for bearded dragons. This is the best price around!
On June 4, 2007:
Repti-Sun is by far the best UVB strip light available. My bearded dragons always have more energy, a better appetite and improved color while using them. I don't feel that any other bulb is anywhere as close in comparison to this one. I won't use any other bulb. They flatten themselves out and totally relax while laying underneath them and it looks like they are smiling.
On May 27, 2007:
This is the cheapest I've seen yet!!! Great product, great price!
On May 8, 2007:
Awesome bulb. Works very well in my turtle tank with two turtles. They love it and keeps their shell looking great.
On April 29, 2007:
this product has helped perk up my bearded dragon tremendously
On April 21, 2007:
Our Bearded Dragon was slowly getting sick when we adopted him. I'm thankful this light was recommended as we already are battleing
Fatty Liver Disease... w/o this light, MBD would have been devastating.
Petmountain.com has the best price. It's $5 less than the next cheapest!
On April 7, 2007:
By far the best UVB light thats worked for me so far. May be a bit costly but it keeps the beardies happy and healthy!
On April 3, 2007:
I'm new to the lizard world, so each experience is a new one for me. My Uro perked right up and became very active once she got the right lighting! This bulb is great for the desert reptiles, which require more UV rays than others.
On April 2, 2007:
This is one of the highest output flourescent UVB bulbs out on the market. It's supposed to provide UVB for a full year unlike most that are only good for 6 months. The "spent" bulbs are great as plant lights as well.
On April 1, 2007:
Its unbelievable the way he changes everytime I get a new ZooMed 10.0 reptisun light for him. I love it, and would recomend it to any one who asks.
On March 31, 2007:
I have the UVB bulb for one of my bearded dragons. It has held up, isn't very expensive, and the beardy loves to bask under it. I just purchased a 2nd beardie, and am purchasing another bulb! Works great!
On March 26, 2007:
I have two of these bulbs for my Bearded Dragons, and these bulbs are perfect for any desert species requiring high UVB requirements. These bulbs are so much better than any other florescent UVB bulbs from any other companies. This Reptisun 10.0 has the highest UVB output of any florescent tubes out there, and I highly reccomend it! Its extremely easy to use (and extremely fragile) and you will not regret this buy.
Jason
On March 26, 2007:
I've been breeding bearded dragons for years now and let me tell you, they absolutely love the repti-sun 10.0 bulbs. their great.
On March 13, 2007:
If you're looking for a flourescent UVB source, this is the one for you. At this time, there's nothing that can compete. Replace every 6 months!
On March 2, 2007:
Great florescent bulb for UVB output for bearded dragons. No other flo bulb compares. And at these prices......wow
On March 1, 2007:
Ive tried these bulbs versus other flourescents and incandescents, by far the best coverage. I have a breeder family inside a 90 gallon square desert enclosure, these bulbs give maximum efficiency on a maximized AOE (area of effect).
On February 25, 2007:
Comparatively the best UVA UVB output without having to buy two bulbs
On February 24, 2007:
These lights work great and so far the best pricing I have seen on the net for them
On February 7, 2007:
This is truly a good day. These prices are half of other competitors.
On November 20, 2006:
I just bought this ReptiSun Bulb and my turtles love it! They are a lot more active and seem to love the ray's.
