The Arcadia D3+ Dragon T5 UVB tube was specially developed to promote animal health and is among the most powerful UVB lamps worldwide. Arcadia Reptile claims that this lamp produces a genuine 14% UV-B output as a percentage of the total light output – measured after a 100-hour burn-in period.
The high and stable UV output effectively supports vitamin D3 synthesis, calcium metabolism, and healthy bone development. At the same time, the high UV-A content ensures natural behavior and intense colors.
The D3+ Dragon tubes provide effective UV levels for many months, but – like all UV light sources – should be replaced after 12 months at the latest, as the UV output decreases over time.
