Designed for flexible installation, the unit can be fitted inside a wooden vivarium, rested on a suitable wire-mesh enclosure or suspended above or within a habitat where appropriate. The specially designed reflector helps direct UV-rich light into the enclosure, creating a dedicated basking area beneath the unit. Its removable design also makes cleaning easier. Available in two options, the Arboreal 2.4% UVB kit is suited to shade-dwelling species such as Crested Geckos and reptiles with lower UV requirements, including those associated with Ferguson Zones 1–2. The Terrestrial 7% UVB kit is intended for suitable terrestrial and crepuscular species, such as Leopard Geckos. Select the appropriate UVB option for your reptile and follow Arcadia's guidance on lamp positioning and safe installation to provide suitable UV exposure for your animal. Directions Please follow the supplied instructions for setup and safety. ## Features - PRO T5 UVB KIT: The Arcadia ShadeDweller Pro T5 UVB Kit includes high-quality electronics, a removable curved reflector and a T5 UVB lamp. Choose between the Arboreal 2.4% UVB or Terrestrial 7% UVB option to suit your reptile's lighting requirements. - VERSATILE INSTALLATION: Designed for flexible placement, this UVB lighting kit can be fixed inside a wooden vivarium, rested on a wire-mesh terrarium or hung above or within an enclosure where safe to do so.

It's for a dry vivarium.** A: As this unit only supplies light, all you need is a device to act as a timer. For example 12 hours on, 12 hours off. So any normal plug in timer socket will work, if you are using a heat source than it may be easier for you to get a combined Thermostat and timer to control everything. It very much depends on your budget, I personally use the HabiStat Digital Dimming Thermostat Day/Night Timer, 600 Watt. But this is at the top end of the price range, although it does everything! **Q: Is this lighting set adequate for a year old corn snake and are replacement bulbs easy to acquire** A: Yes these are suitable for corn snakes and replacement bulbs are easy to find in most reptile stores and online. Replace around every 6-8 months **Q: Would this suit for a Pac-Man frog?** A: Yes, ideal.
