Reliable Basking Heat with Soft Red Light for Reptile Enclosures
The Fluker's Repta-Sun Red Heat Incandescent Bulb at 75 watts delivers consistent, reliable radiant infrared heat for reptiles across a wide range of enclosure sizes. The soft red glow provides a less intense visual environment compared to standard white basking bulbs, making it one of the most versatile wattage options in the Repta-Sun line for everyday reptile heating needs.
Reptiles are ectothermic animals, meaning they rely entirely on their environment to regulate core body temperature. Without an appropriate environmental temperature range (ETR), reptiles can become vulnerable to chronic infections and stress-related health issues. The Repta-Sun 75W Red Heat bulb helps maintain that critical warmth, supporting your reptile's natural thermoregulation needs.
Sold individually. Compatible with standard reptile lamp fixtures and dome-style basking setups.

Material and Design Breakdown
The Repta-Sun Red Heat bulb uses an incandescent design that converts electrical energy into radiant infrared heat - the same type of warmth reptiles naturally absorb from the sun. The red coating softens the visible light output while allowing heat to radiate freely. At 75 watts, it delivers a well-rounded heat output that works across a variety of enclosure sizes and reptile species without the intensity of higher-wattage options.
Setup and Compatibility Guidance
This bulb is designed for use with standard reptile lamp fixtures and dome-style basking lamp holders. Position it above the designated basking zone of your enclosure to create a focused heat gradient. Because ETRs vary by species, consult your pet professional or species-specific care literature to determine the appropriate temperature range and bulb placement for your reptile.
