Exo Terra Reptile Aluminium Dome Fixture

The Exo Terra Reptile Aluminium Dome Fixture is a dedicated lamp holder designed for reptile and amphibian terrariums, giving keepers a reliable, flexible way to position heat and light sources precisely where they're needed. Available in two sizes to suit different enclosure scales, it works with a broad range of screw-based bulbs and is built to handle the demands of a functioning vivarium setup.

Extended Aluminium Reflector

The dome features an extra-long aluminium reflector that projects beyond the face of most bulbs. This design actively increases the effective output of light, UVA, and UVB, directing more energy into the enclosure rather than letting it scatter. For keepers using UVB or basking bulbs, this translates to more efficient coverage from the same lamp.

Heat-Resistant Ceramic Socket

The socket is ceramic construction, making it suitable for both compact fluorescent and incandescent bulbs across the wattage ratings relevant to each size variant. Ceramic holds up reliably under the sustained heat output of basking and heat bulbs, which standard plastic fittings are not rated for.

Bulb Compatibility

This fixture is compatible with a wide range of screw-based Exo Terra bulbs, including:

• Intense Basking Spot
• Daylight Basking Spot
• Halogen Basking Spot
• Daytime Heat Bulb
• Night Time Heat Bulb
• Infrared Basking Spot
• Natural Light
• Reptile UVB100, UVB150, and UVB200
• Solar Glo

Practical Keeper Features

An on/off switch is mounted directly on the power cord, allowing the light to be toggled without reaching the fixture itself. The cord is generously long at 180cm, giving useful flexibility in how and where the dome is positioned relative to plug sockets and controllers. Multiple fixtures can be run simultaneously to build a layered lighting system tailored to the enclosure's needs.

Choose the size that suits your enclosure and bulb type — both variants share the same build quality and feature set, so the decision comes down to the scale of your setup and the lamp you intend to run. A straightforward, well-specified fitting from a manufacturer that understands how reptile lighting actually works in practice.
