Contrary to popular myth, reptiles can see red light. For nocturnal reptiles, it's unnecessary because they can see just fine in the dark, and for diurnal reptiles it can negatively affect the quality of their sleep. Providing light at night may also disrupt your reptile's circadian rhythm.

If you need a nighttime heat source due to nighttime temps too cold for your reptile's needs, we recommend purchasing the Exo Terra Ceramic Heater as an alternative.

The Exo Terra Infrared Basking Spot NANO emits infrared heat waves and is an excellent 24 hour heat source for smaller terrariums, like Exo Terra's Natural terrarium NANO or MINI. The gentle infrared warmth, produced by the special filament of this bulb, penetrates deep into the skin, muscles, nerves and bones. The Infrared Basking Spot Nano has a build-in reflector that can be directed on a specific area to create basking site and temperature gradients.

When used as a 24 hour heat source, the reddish light will not disrupt your animal's physical activity patterns, allowing you to observe your crepuscular and nocturnal reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates at night. The small dimensions of this Infrared Basking Spot NANO is perfect for use with the Exo Terra Reptile Dome NANO; a fixture specifically designed for use on NANO and MINI terrariums.
