Nighttime Heat Without Disturbing Your Reptile's Sleep Cycle
The Fluker's Repta-Sun Incandescent Reptile Black Nightlight Bulb provides the radiant heat and infrared light reptiles need after dark, without emitting the bright white light that can disrupt their natural day-night cycle. At 60 watts, this nightlight bulb is designed to maintain warmth in your terrarium through the night while keeping the environment appropriately dim for your reptile's rest.
Reptiles are ectothermic animals that depend on their environment to regulate their core body temperature. Maintaining an appropriate Environmental Temperature Range (ETR) around the clock is essential for your reptile's health. The Repta-Sun Black Nightlight Bulb helps you sustain nighttime temperatures without interfering with your reptile's natural behavior patterns.
Consult your pet professional or species-specific care resources to determine the correct nighttime temperature range for your reptile.

Material and Design Breakdown
The Repta-Sun Black Nightlight Bulb uses an incandescent design with a black-tinted glass envelope that filters out most visible light while still emitting the infrared heat reptiles need. This allows the bulb to function as a heat source during nighttime hours without creating a bright light environment that could disrupt your reptile's sleep and behavioral patterns. The standard base ensures compatibility with most reptile dome fixtures and clamp lamps.
Setup and Compatibility Guidance
The Repta-Sun Black Nightlight Bulb is designed for use with standard reptile basking fixtures. Position the bulb above the terrarium's warm side to maintain nighttime temperatures. Always use a fixture rated for the bulb's wattage. Refer to your reptile's species-specific care requirements to determine the correct nighttime temperature range and optimal bulb placement.
Care and Maintenance
Allow the bulb to cool completely before handling or replacing. Inspect the bulb periodically for signs of wear and replace as needed to maintain consistent nighttime heat output in your reptile's habitat.
