Reptiles are much more dependent on the sun than mammals. All important biological processes are controlled by the sun, especially metabolic, activity, and rest cycles. The most important controlling factors are light and heat radiation.
These increase alertness, drive, activity, and metabolic activity in reptiles.
The sun always produces light in combination with heat and UV and infrared radiation. The brighter the light, the more intense the solar rays and heat are usually, so in natural conditions, light, heat, and UV and IR radiation are interconnected.
To meet the needs of the animal being bred, the full spectrum of visible and invisible colors must be utilized, along with the emission of heat waves.
Metal halide is the only one that emits all the necessary light and heat waves with a balance similar to that of the sun, providing all the light and heat waves necessary for life.
An important feature of Repti-Zoo metal halide lamps is the appropriate dispersion of light, thus eliminating areas of excessive sunlight. Proper wavelength distribution is crucial, as effective heat regulation and vitamin D3 synthesis are only possible when a reptile's entire body is irradiated.
Some types of lamps, particularly mixed-light lamps and compact fluorescent UV lamps, were characterized by unnaturally high levels of UV radiation. This sometimes led to serious skin and eye damage in animals.
Meanwhile, metal halide lamps possess appropriate UV levels in conjunction with heating and the emission of IR and visible light.
Animals raised under metal halide lamps exhibit much better color development and more natural behavior. The use of these lamps is slowly becoming a hit among professional breeders and is recommended for all reptile enthusiasts.
All these features of the Repti-Zoo metal halide lamp elevate this product far above the competition. One lamp effectively replaces both a heating bulb and a UVB bulb, while also providing significantly more light than any other available on the market.
Metal halide lamps require the use of an appropriate ballast, which can be easily found commercially.
