Exo Terra Forest Canopy Tropical Plant Growth LED – 8 Watt

 

The Exo Terra Forest Canopy Tropical Plant Growth LED with a 6500K color temperature is designed specifically for use in bio-active planted terrariums, where reptiles, amphibians, invertebrates, and plants are kept. Here’s a breakdown of the key features and benefits:

 

Energy Efficiency: The LED light is self-ballasted and energy-efficient, which means it consumes less electricity while providing the necessary light intensity for the plants and animals in the terrarium.

Natural Lighting Simulation: With a color temperature of 6500K, the LED light mimics the natural sunlight conditions found in the Tropical Forest Canopy. This helps create a more natural and suitable environment for the plants and animals.

Bio-Active Planted Terrariums: The LED light is specially designed for use in bio-active planted terrariums, which are setups that include live plants as part of the habitat. It supports the growth of various plant species found in tropical forest canopies.

Plant Growth: The high visible light levels provided by the LED contribute to the healthy growth of plants and mosses in the terrarium. The specific composition of wavelengths, including blue, green, red, and traces of far-red light, is optimized for photosynthesis and plant development.

Animal Well-Being: The LED light improves the perception of the animals’ surroundings by providing natural lighting conditions. This can enhance the well-being of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates by allowing them to experience their environment as they would in the wild.

Color Intensification: The LED light intensifies the colors of both animals and plants, making them appear more vibrant and visually appealing.

Adjustable Beam: The lamp’s base can be rotated up to 300°, allowing you to direct the wide beam of light to specific areas within the terrarium where you want to promote lush plant growth.

Compatibility: The LED light is designed to be used with the Exo Terra Compact Top terrarium cover, making it easy to incorporate into your terrarium setup.

 

Overall, the Exo Terra Forest Canopy Tropical Plant Growth LED is designed to provide optimal lighting conditions for bio-active planted terrariums, supporting the growth of plants and creating a natural and visually appealing environment for the animals.
