No, LED lights are not the same as UVB lights. While both emit light, UVB light also emits ultraviolet radiation, which can be harmful to humans and animals. LED lights do not emit ultraviolet radiation and are therefore considered safe for use around people and animals.
Some amphibians can see red light, but not all of them. Amphibians that can see red light usually have red eyes.
Reptiles generally need specialized lighting, including full-spectrum UVB light, to thrive. While you can use regular lights for reptiles in a pinch, it’s not ideal and they won’t get the full benefits of the UVB light they need. If you’re using regular lights for reptiles, be sure to supplement with a good quality UVB light source.
No, amphibians do not need lighting. They are able to see in low light conditions and do not require a special light source.

becomes really warm! emits no light at all. Make careful you insert it into a specific hood or wire holder. It cannot fit within a standard dome hood. Despite learning that none of the hanging hoods would fit with this, I insisted on having it hang above my tank (as opposed to being inside or setting right on the top mesh). I ultimately decided to purchase a broad, ceramic-topped brooders hood (for newborn chicks) (bulb gets really hot and needs ceramic). The problem was that this particular hood was only available with a clamp that had to be attached to the side of the speak. I finally created a copper hanger and had the ideal do-it-yourself answer (see pics).

This clamp light is of the very highest caliber. The inexpensive ones that are currently being sold at big box stores are NOT my style. This one features a switch built into the rope, ceramic housing (rather than cheap plastic), and all of those things. I've bought numerous inexpensive plastic ones. If you have to leave them on for days on end, they won't provide you any piece of mind. As the plastic warms up, the edges become brittle and peel off. With these ceramic ones, this NEVER occurs. I would absolutely choose these above what you'll get at big box stores at this pricing on Amazon ($7.33). However, I still wish they were a few dollars less expensive. They still add up if you need to buy a lot of them. But even at this price, choosing it over the inexpensive ones is a clear choice.

Ceramic socket: for use with lamps up to 100 watts
Deep Dome extends beyond the face of the lamp, preventing the lamp from sticking out"
Polished aluminum dome for maximum light and heat output

These domes perform admirably. They serve both as ceramic bulb heaters and lights for me. They all have timers and dimmers attached to them, which keeps my habitats, well, livable.When I need to remove the cover from my enclosures, I can hang these up on the wall thanks to the wire hook/loop on top. I feel at ease utilizing heating fixtures because of the ceramic socket and on/off button along the power cord.WARNING: These have a 100 watt maximum rating. Therefore, please purchase a dome that is rated adequately if you're purchasing ceramic heat emitters. The safety of your home and the lives of your pet are more important than a few dollars saved on an electrical item.

I chose this kind of bulb for my beardy after completing a lot of research. I'm new to reptiles, but I wanted to take all the necessary precautions to ensure that mine had a long and healthy life (just like I do for all my pets). But after deciding to use this bulb, I was horrified to learn that neither of the big nor small pet stores in my area had it in stock. My spouse warned me about getting a bulb like this because of the shipping costs, but I had to take a chance. Although the package appeared to be in good condition and the first bulb I received was definitely damaged, it would flicker briefly before going out. Fortunately, the business agreed to a complete refund.This bulb came much more attractively wrapped, and it DOES operate. It cost exactly $1.50 more than the other bulb, but it's clear that this manufacturer recognizes the need of extremely careful packaging. The bulb was well-protected by bubble wrap, paper padding, and a substantial box.I hang the bulb on this fixture, and it works great. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AKKUBDQ/ref=ppx yo dt b asin title o04 o00 s01?ie=UTF8

I've been replacing the 100w Powersun bulbs I've been using over my 300g turtle pond every 6 to 9 months for over 4 years, but this time I thought I'd try the 100w Evergreen light. In comparison to the powersun's opaque lens, the Evergreen bulb is $20 cheaper, physically larger, and has an almost transparent lens. The first bulb had a tiny issue, but the business swiftly followed up and replaced it within two days. In the spot beam directly above the basking region where the powersun was white, this bulb has a stronger greenish tint, although I suspect it could alter as it breaks in. The prior bulb maintained the angle of the basking area at 12 degrees "away. This lightbulb is bigger and has a 10 "It also maintains the area's 90-degree angle. I did observe that the turtles seemed to enjoy the light and were anxious to instantly crawl under it. Time will tell how it holds up or whether the color will level out as it does with MV bulbs over time, but I'm thrilled to have a more affordable lighting option and am grateful to work with a firm that puts the needs of their customers first.

For my beardies, I've been using Exo Terra Sun-Glo Basking lights for about 20 years, and they've always performed admirably. They offer a great area for basking and sufficient of light throughout the terrarium to create the ideal day/night cycle. These lights have always been favorable for my dragons. We are in Ohio, and I use a 75W in the summer to produce a basking spot temperature of approximately 100degF and a 100W in the winter to keep midday temperatures in the low 80s for my 55gal terrariums.I've only ever had a bulb burn out early once or twice in all the years I've used these. Our bulbs typically last a few months, and some have even survived longer than a year. When I first got several from Amazon, 2 of the 4 I ordered arrived with broken filaments, but the vendor quickly sent me some replacements. Since then, no problems. Overall, this is a fantastic product that I wholeheartedly endorse to anyone attempting to preserve the ideal environment for a desert species.

Yes, LED lights work for reptiles. They provide the necessary light for reptiles to see and help them regulate their body temperature.
There is no definitive answer to this question as different reptiles have different preferences. Some reptiles are attracted to black light, while others are not. Some reptiles may even be scared of black light. Ultimately, it depends on the individual reptile.
Do reptiles like red light? There isn't a definitive answer to this question as different reptiles have different preferences. Some reptiles, such as certain lizards, seem to be attracted to red light while others, such as snakes, are not. In general, however, it is thought that reptiles do not see the color red as we do. Instead, they are likely to see it as a dark color or even as black. So, while some reptiles may be drawn to red light, it is probably not because they find it particularly attractive.
Reptiles do not need night lights, but they can benefit from the addition of a small, dim light in their enclosure. This light can help them regulate their body temperature and activity levels. It is important to choose a light that emits very little heat, as reptiles are sensitive to high temperatures.
Yes, reptiles need UV light. Without it, they can't properly process calcium, which can lead to health problems. Additionally, UV light helps reptiles regulate their body temperature and provides them with vitamin D3, which is essential for their overall health.
Reptiles are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. A common question among reptile owners is whether or not to leave their reptile lights on all night. There are a few things to consider when making this decision. First, what type of reptile do you have? Some reptiles, such as snakes, are nocturnal and will be more active at night if the lights are off. Others, like turtles, are diurnal and will be more active during the day if the lights are on. If your
