Daytime Heat and UVA Light for Reptiles and Amphibians
Fluker's Day Time Blue Heating Light is a daylight bulb engineered to provide both heat and UVA wavelengths in a single, easy-to-use solution. Designed specifically for reptiles and amphibians, it supports the natural light cycles and behavioral patterns your pet depends on for healthy daily activity.
The UVA wavelengths emitted by this bulb are known to stimulate normal feeding behavior in reptiles and amphibians, making it a functional addition to any enclosure that requires daytime lighting and supplemental heat. The uncoated blue glass construction maximizes heat transfer, ensuring efficient warmth delivery throughout the habitat.
At 40 watts, this bulb delivers more heat output than the 25-watt version, making it a strong choice for medium-sized enclosures or setups that require a more robust daytime heat source.

Why Reptile Owners Choose It
Maintaining proper daytime lighting and heat is one of the most important aspects of reptile husbandry. Fluker's Day Time Blue Heating Light simplifies that by combining heat output and UVA exposure in one bulb. The 40-watt version is ideal for keepers who need a bit more heat output while still maintaining a natural daylight appearance in the enclosure.
