Product Description
The Reptile One T5 Reptile UVB 12% Tube 39W is a specialist reptile lighting tube designed to provide UVB exposure for compatible reptile enclosures. Measuring 849mm (33 inches), it is intended for use with a compatible T5 lighting fixture.
UVB lighting is an important part of reptile care for species that require ultraviolet B exposure. Appropriate UVB helps reptiles produce vitamin D3, which supports calcium absorption and healthy bone development. It should be provided alongside suitable heating, nutrition and habitat conditions.
The 12% UVB rating identifies the tube’s UVB output category. The appropriate lighting setup depends on your reptile’s species, the distance from the tube, enclosure design and access to shaded areas.

Installation and Care
Install the tube according to the manufacturer’s instructions and confirm that your fixture supports the correct tube length and wattage. Position it at the recommended distance for your reptile species, and provide shaded areas so your reptile can regulate its UVB exposure.
UVB output gradually declines with use, even if the tube continues to produce visible light. Replace the tube according to the manufacturer’s recommended schedule.
Important: UVB requirements vary between reptile species. Confirm that a 12% UVB tube is suitable for your reptile and enclosure before use.
