Best Reptile & Amphibian Habitat Lighting of 2025

"I found these lights to be perfect and well-built, especially considering how much cheaper they are compared to competitors. I bought at least ten without any issues!"

"After needing a replacement for my dragon's cage, I absolutely love this model. It's larger and seems to hold bulbs that last longer than our previous one."

"I was really counting on the lamp arriving on time for my rescue gecko. Although the first one came badly dented, the second was dent-free and has been working wonderfully since!"

"I really like this lamp; it’s easy to use, and the light dimming feature makes the brightness look amazing. It works wonders and lasts a long time."

"I've bought several Fluker clamp lamps over the years. This one was easy to assemble once I figured out the clamp setup. It’s perfect for my baby snapping turtle, keeping him at a comfortable 78 degrees."

"For the price, I was surprised by the quality. It’s durable, easy to install, and provides great brightness, especially for my bearded dragon!"

"I find the soft white light perfect for my setup. I hope it lasts longer than others I've tried that blew out in a week."

"These bulbs are fantastic! I usually replace them every six months, which is pretty impressive considering they run 12 hours daily for my bearded dragon. She loves it!"

"For my son's 40-gallon tank, this bulb is just right. It's warm without being too hot, and we are always satisfied with our Fluker's purchases."

"I purchased several of these bulbs for my brooder in different wattages, allowing me to lower the temperature without adjusting the height of the fixture. They all worked out of the box and operated well. However, the temperature difference among the bulbs was negligible when placed about 2 ft high. I found it better to skip down two wattages as I lowered the temperature weekly. I would definitely recommend these bulbs, as they seem well made and I had no issues with any of them."

"When I couldn't find the temperature details in the product description, I decided to take a chance. Thankfully, all the temps are listed on the box. I'm currently using this bulb in a feral cat enclosure to keep our new feline friend warm during the cold northern winters. I've had it continuously running for over a week without any issues. I opted for the 75w bulb to balance heat output and power consumption. So far, it keeps the insulated center at 90°F even with 20°F outside. It's performing exactly as I needed for this application."

"I generally like the Fluker's brand because they seem to genuinely care about my pet and offer products that work well and promptly. If you need a light quickly, grab one of these, and you’ll be set in no time!"

"I've used these bulbs for my red eared slider for years and she's remained healthy. The bulb reminder service is super convenient, sending me an email when it's time for a change."

"In my experience with these bulbs since 2019 for my chameleons, they have been reliable. I appreciate the date recording feature on the bulb for tracking replacements."

"I find these bulbs great for my crested geckos. They last a long time without heating up, and I recommend them to anyone needing UVB for reptiles!"

"I recently purchased the REPTI ZOO T5 HO UVB Lighting Combo Kit for my bearded dragon. At first, it seemed to perform perfectly, providing all the necessary UVB light. However, after just a month of use, it stopped working unexpectedly. This failure poses a serious risk to my pet's health because UVB lighting is essential for their well-being. I'm disappointed and can't recommend this product to fellow reptile owners."

"I'm really happy with the REPTI ZOO T5 HO UVB Lighting Combo Kit. The setup was simple, and the UVB output has been just right for my reptile. Since using this light, I've noticed my pet is happier and more active. The build quality is impressive, and it fits perfectly on my terrarium. I highly recommend this for anyone with desert reptiles!"

"I've been using this lamp for a few weeks now, and it's been running flawlessly. I have it set up on a WiFi-controlled outlet for 13 hours a day. I've noticed my lizard is more active since switching from an LED UVB bulb. My only minor complaint is that the cord could be a little longer, but overall, the build quality and packaging are great."

"My bearded dragon loves this light. He enjoys basking under it and it works great for him. Good size and very bright. The price was reasonable. It looks like a quality light to me."

"I originally purchased two of these bulbs, one for use and one as a backup. However, the first bulb only lasted a few hours. The second bulb also failed quickly. After requesting replacements, the replacements lasted only a few days each. This experience has been a waste of my time and money. I ended up buying one at a pet store for triple the price, hoping it lasts longer."

"Calling all reptile enthusiasts! This UVA UVB Reptile Light is a game changer. My bearded dragon, 'Buttercup', is happier than ever. Since installing this light, he feels like he's in his own desert paradise. It provides essential rays for his health and mood. It’s a joy to see him thrive and even perform what I call the 'song of his people'. Five stars for transforming his tank into a tropical retreat!"

“I recently got the REPTI ZOO UVB Reptile Light with Dimming, and I'm very pleased. The UVB light works wonderfully for my reptiles, keeping them healthy and thriving. The dimming feature is a fantastic addition, allowing me to adjust brightness as needed. It feels sturdy and well-made, and it fits nicely in the enclosure. While it is a bit pricey, I believe it’s a worthwhile investment for my reptiles’ well-being.”

“I love this light! It has both desert and rainforest settings. My parakeets were a bit hesitant at first, but now I see them underneath it all the time. It really seems to work well for them.”

“We have a 10-gallon tank for our leopard gecko, and this light is perfect for it. The dimming feature is an added bonus that I really appreciate.”

"I find this light to be solid and reliable. The mounting hardware works well too!"

"This light fits perfectly on my reptile terrarium and is great for the price. I use it with an auto timer, so I have no complaints at all."

"I ordered this light for my travels with my reptiles. It's easy to use and compact, ensuring they get their vitamin D while on the go."

"I've always trusted Zilla products, and these replacement lights are no exception. The price is quite reasonable too!"

"I was disappointed with the plastic covering on the bulb. UVB cannot pass through plastic, so I had to break it just to use it. It worked for a while, but after replacing it, it just flickered. A real letdown for my reptiles."

"It took quite a while for my order to arrive, but Zilla is a reliable brand. I've only had the lights installed for a short time, but I'm optimistic about their performance!"
