Design Breakdown
The true blue glass construction is a key differentiator for this bulb. Because the glass is genuinely blue rather than painted or coated, heat transfers more efficiently through the glass, making it a more effective daytime heat source. The blue tint also produces a bright, daylight-like output that enhances the visual environment inside the terrarium and makes your reptile's natural colors more vivid and appealing.

Use the Daylight Blue Reptile Bulb in a fixture rated for 100 watts. Position it to create a warm basking zone or general daytime heat gradient within the terrarium. This bulb is designed for daytime use as a heat and UVA light source for reptile and amphibian enclosures.
