Manufactured in Germany, this T5 tube delivers intense, sustained UVA and UVB output alongside a well-balanced visible light spectrum, and is available in four sizes to suit enclosures of different scale.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBuilt for Mesophotic Zone Species\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReptiles adapted to dappled or intermittent sunlight rely on balanced UV exposure to regulate their physiology. These animals exhibit adaptive basking behaviours — optimising body temperature and UVB intake while managing shade to avoid overheating. The UVB200 is calibrated to replicate the UV conditions of these natural habitats, giving keepers a lamp that works with the animal's instincts rather than against them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eUVA, UVB and Vitamin D3\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUVB output supports healthy Vitamin D3 synthesis and maximises calcium absorption\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuards against Metabolic Bone Disease with consistent, long-lasting UV delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUVA stimulates natural appetite, activity levels, and reproductive behaviour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique phosphor blend replicates the solar UVB spectrum more accurately than standard tubes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUV output rated for 12+ months of lasting performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSuperior Penetration for Taller Terrariums\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a Very High Output T5, this lamp produces stronger UVB penetration than conventional T8 tubes and energy-saving alternatives. That makes it well suited to taller vivariums or enclosures fitted with denser mesh screens, where weaker lamps would fall short. Emission intensity does vary with distance from the basking zone, so placement remains important.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe UVB200 T5 VHO range is recommended for use with the Exo Terra T5 Terrarium Top canopy.
