So recently the UV lighting in my beardies viv gave up the ghost, no issue I thought, ordered the usual lights I use which originally came with the viv 4 years ago when I got it. I have never had any issues with them before, went to clean out her viv and change the lighting popped them in and nothing, both UV lights not working. I'm getting pretty freaked as she obviously needs her lighting and I really have no clue what to do, the only other thing I can think of is maybe the fuses need changing in the plugs? Her heat lamp is perfectly fine though.
Iv'e included a photo of one of the lights the other one sits on the opposite side of the viv
Your UVB light is 4 years old??????????? UVB lights need to be changed out T 5's once a year T 8's every 6 months ------------ there is no reflector on the UVB - it has not done any good so to speak - you need to get a fixture w/ a reflector and a new bulb or get a new bulb and put the UVB directly over head w /a distance of 4-6 inches from basking decor ------------- the reflector intensifies the UVB rays --
