Lighting for pet reptiles is very important, with many species needing ultraviolet light for continued health in captivity. We have many types of reptile lighting to reproduce natural conditions for pet reptiles. Fluorescent ultra violet lighting is the best choice for many species of daytime active reptiles kept as Bearded Dragons and Water Dragons and at Pets Parade we have a good selection of Hagen reptile lights that cover most species of reptiles and amphibians.

The ultraviolet light allows the assimilation of calcium in the diet. Pets Parade stocks various strengths of ultraviolet reptile lighting supplies to suit desert reptiles or tropical reptiles and amphibians.
We also have a good selection of fittings and light control gear for reptile lighting both for fluorescent lights and incandescent lighting. The newer types of reptile lights such the active UV bulbs give extremely bright natural lighting for pet reptiles that require high light outputs.

There are many different types of lighting that can be used in vivariums and reptile cages, fluorescent lighting, ultraviolet lights, and spot lamps are all commonly used. The exact choice of lighting equipment will depend on the species of reptile being kept. With such a wide variety of snakes, Geckos and other lizards being kept as pets, no one type of lighting equipment will suit all situations.

As a general guide those species that are night time active in nature such as Leopard Geckos and most species of snakes require only dull lighting. For these species of reptiles the lighting of the vivarium is mainly for the owners benefit rather than that of the reptile. Low intensity reptile fluorescent lights can be used or even aquarium lights.
Some owners find that a spot bulb controlled by a Reptile dimmers'stat is enough to give a low level of light as well as heating the vivarium.

We stock a wide range of top brand reptile lighting equipment by Arcadia, Hagen and Interpet. Please read the information in the product descriptions to help you select the correct lighting for your vivarium or terrarium. Different species of lizards, snakes, spiders and amphibians require different types of lighting.
