ReptiZoo Dome Mesh 8.5" Guard for LQD051 & LQD065 Dome Fixtures

The RZ Dome Mesh is a purpose-made safety guard designed to fit the underside of 8.5 inch dome lamp fixtures — specifically the LQD051 and LQD065 models. It creates a physical barrier between the hot bulb surface and any animal that gets too close, adding a straightforward but important layer of protection inside the vivarium or terrarium.

Compatibility

This mesh guard is sized specifically for 8.5 inch (22cm) dome fixtures, fitting the LQD051 and LQD065 dome lamps. If you're running a smaller 5.5 inch dome, a separate size is available — this listing is for the larger variant only.

What It Does

Reptiles and amphibians don't always recognise heat as a hazard, and direct contact with a hot bulb can cause serious burns. Fitting this mesh guard beneath the dome reduces that risk without interfering with light output or heat distribution in any meaningful way.

For any keeper running a basking setup with LQD051 or LQD065 dome fixtures, this guard is a sensible addition — particularly in enclosures housing arboreal species or individuals that climb toward the light source.
