At 300mm (12\") and 8 watts, it fits smaller vivarium and terrarium setups where a full-length tube would be impractical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eUV Output\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.4% UVB output supports vitamin D3 synthesis in low-UV-requirement species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e30% UVA output, contributing to natural behaviour and colour perception\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuited to Ferguson Zone 1 animals — those with limited direct sun exposure in their natural range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLight Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs well as its UV performance, this tube produces strong, natural colour rendering.
