ShadeDweller is also great for many other ‘partial baskers’ and diurnal/terrestrial/arboreal species in smaller enclosures or when young; such as hatchling snakes, small arboreal ‘forest type’ lizards, amphibians and inverts where they can easily climb to self-regulate. Being longer and in the case of Royal/Ball pythons, more robust also, it is important to increase the size of area of illumination (projection zone), allow good photo and thermoregulation, which helps to ensure access to full colour vision and the ability to self-regulate D3 levels.
The Arcadia Reptile 8w 12”/30cm ProT5 fitting is used and loved by thousands of keepers all over the globe, it is sleek, stylish, robust, easy to use . ProT5 with LumenIZE is sleek, effective, offers smooth dimming patterns which puts you in control of replicating the sun as closely as possible via the free and easy to use LumenIZE App. UV-B, to achieve a very similar result, then this is your answer, the lamp itself is more powerful over the whole spectrum of the lamp, so to reach optimal UVI at the target distance the % if UV-B is reduced, the resulting UVI however is very similar in both cases. The built-in reflector provides a mid-width flood of light that is perfect for providing an easy to measure basking area for any species.has been designed to be safe and effective for use over standard meshed topped enclosures, as well as inside vivariums where the planting and decoration is close to the lamp. These kits offer lower light which means it is more natural lighting for them, whilst still providing the very best in quality UVB. The effectiveness of this fixture depends on factors such as the distance to the basking area, the species' climbing ability, and the requirement of a smaller area of UV energy. ShadeDweller, ProT5 and JungleDawn-LED Bar should be provided alongside a stat controlled heat source.
ShadeDweller ProT5 is equipped with a highly functional but removable curved reflector that ensures a UV rich basking area directly beneath the unit.For far too long Crepuscular animals such as Leopard Geckos have not had dedicated lighting systems, ShadeDweller™ by Arcadia Reptile seeks to right this wrong. Arcadia Shade Dweller Kits come in two size options, the Pro T5 or Mini T5, both coming with a 8w ShadeDweller bulb. The ShadeDweller ProT5 kit will help you to provide adequate levels of essential UV energy beneath the lighting kit and over a targeted area.
John Courtney-Smith, Head of Science and Innovation at Arcadia Reptile says "I have been passionate about providing the correct sources of energy from light to crepuscular species for many years. However, for those who keep these species in smaller or more shallow enclosures where the optimal distance for the ShadeDweller 7% UV-B is not achievable or keep crepuscular Arboreal species and choose to decorate the top of the enclosure, the ShadeDweller-Arboreal 2. Any ShadeDweller, ProT5 and JungleDawn-LED Bar should be provided alongside a Thermostat controlled heat source such as the Arcadia Reptile Solar Basking Flood, Halogen Floods and Deep Heat Projector. The Arcadia Pro T5 UVB Kit arrives complete with high quality electronics, a highly effective but removable reflector and a the brand new lower output 2.energy saving calculated when testing against non-dimming lamps tested on a 9 hour cycle with a 4 hour full 100% output. The Arcadia Reptile 8w 12”/30cm ProT5 fitting is used and loved by thousands of keepers all over the globe, it is sleek, stylish, robust, easy to use and allows easy linking of further ProT5 fitting and JungleDawn LEDBAR. Deliveries are usually Monday to Friday only, although some Royal Mail items may be delivered on weekends as standard if the service is available in your area. The ideal solution for providing gentle full-spectrum+UV-B lighting for arboreal and climbing species living within enclosures where planting/decoration is provided directly up to the mesh and within those that do not use heavy planting.
For far too long Crepuscular animals have not had dedicated lighting systems; ShadeDweller seeks to right this wrong! For far too long Crepuscular animals have not had dedicated lighting systems, ShadeDweller seeks to right this wrong! However, for ‘shade dwelling’ species such as crested geckos, some day geckos, amphibians and smaller snakes that can easily move upwards towards the lamp increased energy is found, giving them a higher UVB level than is really ideal for them. The bulb used in the ProT5 UVB kit is an 8W T5 (30cm/12") full-spectrum bulb, so it is very energy efficient for a dedicated lighting system and helps to provide essential vitamin D3.These 7% UVB T5 bulb helps with the synthesis of Vitamin D3, and provides a targeted flood of UV from this full spectrum bulb. In this way the animal can travel to energise under the lamp and self regulate its exposure naturally.
