- Probably most important is our customer service and years of experience; actually having various reptiles of our own and breeding bearded dragons. Quick email responses; specific to your questions about assembly and setup. We are here in the US, communicating with intelligible English. We also offer a practical approach to “customizing” your terrarium habitat with effective lighting fixtures, aesthetic 3-sided backgrounds, larger habitat accessories and practical reptile carpet.
- INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS on YouTube…. These are the best fixtures that we’ve ever used for our reptiles’ UVB requirements! This T5HO (high output) fixture gives superior performance because of its high output electronic ballast and its high-efficiency silver reflector. UVB is necessary for your reptile’s synthesis of vitamin D3, which is essential for the effective metabolism of dietary calcium in its bones and blood.
- The fixture’s streamlined shape provides for great flexibility in locating and mounting for your reptile’s habitat. Improved effectiveness is achieved by being able to mount under your cage’s top screen mesh. We prefer the UVB output from linear fluorescent tubes because this way it’s possible to cover 2/3’s of the habitat area.
- This fixture is a superior addition to the habitats of bearded dragons, Rankin dragons, horned toad lizards, uromastyx, most other desert reptiles, small turtles and turtles. Animal should be no closer than 10” directly under the fixture and no closer than 6” diagonally from the sides or ends of the fixture. Carolina Custom Cages is a division of Carolina Designer Dragons, Inc.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Compact and attractive!
  

*by J***S on Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2020*

I just got the fixture and installed it in my 40 gallon tank. It does not come with bulbs, so I ordered those at the same time. Bubba my bearded dragon already likes it! One criticism is there are no clear instructions or illustration to show you how to mount it or I would give 5 stars. It comes with screws, a tiny screw driver and zip ties. I am guessing the screws are for a tank I don't have, so I just pushed the zip ties through the top screen and attached it that way. I got this fixture because I read and saw many videos recommending not using UVB coil bulbs in domes and that the tank needs UVB all the way across. Supposedly coil bulbs might not provide enough UVB and lead to MBD. I also got it because I accidentally knocked the domes I have on the floor, and the bulbs broke. Now it's neat safe inside the tank as it should be. The tank is well lit now. I recommend it.UPDATE NOV 18, 2020I have uploaded a picture of Bubba the beardie 3 1/2 months after purchasing this fixture. I am super pleased, and it all still works great. I spoil my boy and buy him the best. As you can see in the second picture, he is a very healthy lizard. No sign of metabolic bone disease or illness, and he has thrived. I believe the fixture provides just the right distance and heat as required and attribute it to my little man's excellent health. I am not sure why other people complain about this fixture. It is light, compact, and recedes visually. Some people say you have to buy the bulbs from Carolina Cages, which is not correct. I bought my bulbs separately. Depending on your cage, you must consider before purchasing if it will attach in some way. Another viewer says the fixture fell apart and did not light...I do not see how that is possible unless you forcefully rip it apart. I decided to add to my past review to show you how well my beardie is doing now.

    Perfect fixture!!
  

*by K***. on Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2019*

Love this fixture, it's so well made. I have it on the Carolina Customs  large 36x18x18 so I purchased Carolina Custom Cages Reptile 22" T5HO UVB + Single GU10 Basking Light fixture. There's different sizes for all of their terrariums.I love the fact that it's all in one.  You mount it rite to the inside of the screen. It's simple do and you don't have dome's sitting on the top of your terrarium, it looks so messy. I used wire, there's a hole at each end of the fixture, I positioned it where I wanted it and just fed the wire thru the screen in the cover, twisted the wire tightly and snipped off the ends. It doesn't come with bulbs, I used the bulbs that CC suggest. the basking bulb is the Carolina Custom Cages 75w GU10 Halogen Reptile Basking Bulb. The UBV is the Carolina Custom Cages Zoo Med ReptiSun 10.0 UVB T5HO 22 Reptile Lighting Fluorescent Tube. Really good quality product!!

    A must have for your tortoise!  Amazing!
  

*by J***K on Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2015*

This fixture is absolutely amazing!  I have a 36"x18" terrarium for my 7 month old sulcata tortoise.  When I adopted him this past fall I immediately bought a Zoo Med Deep Dual Dome fixture.  I thought it was fine, but all in all it is very bulky, not attractive, and the light is not widely dispersed.  I was beginning to feel like my little guy wasn't getting the "sunlight" he needed from it.  I am so happy I gave in and purchased this fixture.  I zip-tied it to the terrarium lid last night and WOW!  It is hidden, sleek, and gives off light throughout the tank - and I can already see a huge difference in my little man's mood.  This fixture and the lights (not included) are worth every penny!  I am one very satisfied tortoise mom!
