Zoo Med ReptiTherm Habitat Heater, 40W

For the big personalities in your reptile family, the Zoo Med ReptiTherm Habitat Heater steps up with 40 watts of warmth. Zoo Med designed this heater specifically for large, heavy reptiles, the kind of pets that need more than a small under-tank pad can offer. If your home includes a hefty tortoise or a sizeable lizard, this is the warmer made with them in mind.

Who the 40-watt ReptiTherm Habitat Heater is built for:

• The 40-watt output is geared toward large, heavy reptiles rather than small terrarium dwellers.
• Zoo Med calls out tortoises as a prime example of the heavy reptiles this heater serves.
• A strong fit for large, zoo-style enclosures where bigger animals roam.
• Designed with Monitors in mind, one of the large lizard species Zoo Med names.
• Suited to Tegus, another sizeable lizard the heater is intended for.
• Made to keep Iguanas comfortable in their roomy habitats.
• Welcomes other large lizards beyond the species Zoo Med specifically lists.
• This is Zoo Med's newer Habitat Heater, purpose-built for substantial reptiles.
• Brings dedicated warmth to spacious setups that smaller heaters cannot cover well.
• One unit gives you a single, focused heat source for your big reptile's home.

Keeping a large reptile happy means matching the heat to the size of both the animal and its enclosure, and that is exactly the gap this Habitat Heater is meant to fill. A small under-tank pad simply cannot keep up with the space a heavy reptile lives in, which is why Zoo Med built a heater on this scale. Whether your tortoise lumbers across a wide pen or your monitor stretches out in a roomy zoo-style habitat, the 40-watt ReptiTherm gives you a heater scaled to the job rather than asking a small pad to do work it was never built for. If you keep Tegus, Iguanas, or other large lizards, this same heater is designed to serve them too, so one unit can warm a variety of big residents. Pairing it with a dedicated thermostat is a smart way to keep temperatures right where your big reptile thrives, so the warmest member of your household stays cozy and content through every season of the year.
