Why Our Lighting Is Different

It might sound cliche, but our customers are our priority. We aren't anyone's paid affiliate, and we don't recommend stuff we don't use ourselves. Our lighting lineup is from brands which are both reliable and a great bang for your buck. If they weren't, we wouldn't carry them. As technology changes and improves, our lineup changes to ensure we've got whatever is the best currently available. We test new lighting solutions every year, and carefully listen to customer feedback about every lighting product and kit we've sold. We're vivarium enthusiasts too, after all!

Helping Make Educated Decisions

We put our experience as terrarium plant growers to work when we wrote Vivarium Lighting 101, and it has since become the #1 vivarium lighting guide on the Internet. The facts described in VL101 were applied to each lighting recommendation you'll find on our website. We're proud to encourage education before investment, and hope you'll check out the non-biased information we've got available before making a decision! Lighting is one of those things which can be broken down into hard-data, and we've done our best to ensure we're an open book when it comes to each product we sell. All relevant PAR & Lux data is measured from industry-standard distances, and we don't inflate or obscure our specs to make things more marketable. (Our info usually leans to the conservative side!) Consider the data, compare pricing, and you'll see exactly why our small business has held both the #1 and #2 spots on Google for "Vivarium Lighting" and "Vivarium Lighting Kits" since 2016.

Balancing Aesthetics With Performance

Our lighting doesn't just grow plants well, it looks naturally accurate too. We do our best to balance PAR ratings, Lux output, and color temperature to ensure a light source grows plants, appears bright enough, and represents color accurately. None of our products will cast an unnatural "blurple" hue of light over your vivarium, and we're careful to ensure our lineup also avoids the "disco effect" common with certain multi-colored LEDs. If you are curious, you can see plenty of images in our gallery for an idea of how our lighting options look and perform. You can alternatively run a search on Google Images for "Live Vivariums", where 6 of the 12 most popular related images were built using our gear! :-)

Exo Terra Compact Tops

Our favorite fixtures for screw-in LEDs & CFLs

Exo Terra Compact Tops
Exo Terra Compact Tops

▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description
The Exo Terra Compact Top Canopy is a compact fluorescent terrarium canopy designed for use with Exo Terra Glass Terrariums, but can be used for a wide variety of enclosures. This easy-to-install canopy accommodates compact fluorescent bulbs, LEDs, and even low wattage incandescent bulbs. Hoods 12" smaller have 1 on/off light switch, and larger hoods have 2. Max CFL bulb wattage: 26W. Max incandescent bulb wattage: 25W.
Fitment Information
The versatility of these fixtures is part of why we like them so much. Every Exo Terra Natural CFL, UVB CFL, and Plant Growth CFL (up to 26W) we carry will fit into every Exo Terra Compact Top. When it comes to LEDs, every one of our Jungle Dawn & Value Grow horizontal LEDs (under 7.5in) will fit, too! Never mix CFL bulbs and LEDs in a single fixture, since doing so will cause the LED(s) to overheat.

NEHERP Staff Description
Even in 2020, we still use more Jump Start T5HO fixtures than any other grow light in our indoor greenhouses, and we can't say enough good things about them. They are very inexpensive, very light, fairly cool running (esp. for a T5HO!), dependable, easy to mount, and include an excellent Agrosun / Agrobrite bulb. Considering all that and the expandability of the link cables and dock kit add-ons, these are our favorite T5HOs. We're now carrying the newest models with integrated timers, which can be bypassed for commercial purposes. (Lights default to "on" when powered by default)
Manufacturer Description
This high-output, energy efficient T5 system ensures that your plants get the light they need for robust growth. The super-slim T5 Light Strip includes a 6400K full-spectrum T5 lamp, electronic ballast, hanging hardware, and power cord. The Omni-Max reflector easily snaps onto the T5 strip. The highly reflective material directs light downward, bathing your plants in full-spectrum light, and increasing your growing success. The built-in timer allows you to easily set a 12 hours on/12 hours off schedule or an 18 hours on/6 hours off schedule with a single button press. Fixtures can be linked in tandem via the optional link cable quickly and easily. The optional Modular Dock system is available for those looking to create their own 2-4 strip fixtures, and it's easy to add/remove fixtures to/from the dock to fit your needs. Dock systems include link cables, 18in removable stand legs, and are compatible with up to 4qty 48in or 24in fixtures. Link no more than 5qty 48in fixtures, 10qty 24in fixtures, or 12 18in fixtures per row.

Jungle Hobbies Advanced LED (Single)

The ultimate vivarium lighting solution

Jungle Hobbies Advanced LED     Jungle Hobbies Advanced LED
▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description
In our opinion, this is the best vivarium light on the market. It's got the highest PAR & Lumen specs of any linear LED fixture on the market. It's also got the most detaiLED & customizable automated scheduling effects of any light we've tested. It runs relatively cool thanks to it's unique fan and ducting system, has impossibly realistic remote-triggered effects, and the levels of customization are adjustable on even the most minute levels. We're big fans of this LED and you will be too. We recommend it for enclosures ranging from 24-48in tall, and 14-24in wide. For wider enclosures, we recommend the Jungle Hobbies Advanced Double unit.
Manufacturer Description
This light is packed with features that will satisfy the most discriminating gadget loving vivarium/aquarium hobbyist. This ultra-high end LED unit easily simulates different lighting conditions throughout the day with full control over light intensity and timing. Each of the 5 modes (Dawn, Sunrise, Day, Sunset, and Night) are individually scheduLED & fully adjustable to create a custom-tailored lighting solution for any desired condition.
Control all function of the light with the included multi-function remote. Switch between lighting modes. Interrupt the daily program and hit Day setting while you do maintenance. Program all the modes with a touch of a button. Kick on the lightning mode and turn your vivarium or aquarium into a stormy frenzy. The frequency of the lightning can be sped up or slowed down too. Have you ever wanted to simulate natural movement of clouds in your vivarium/aquarium? Press COLOR on the remote and watch the light turn down intensity, color and brighten up, dim down as the clouds roll through in front of the sun. The simulated movement speed of the clouds can also be sped up or slowed down via the remote.
Jungle Hobbies LEDs are able to be linked together. Use standard computer networking cable to link multiple units together, to ensure everything stays on the exact same schedule. One LED unit will be assigned the "master" function, and all connected LED units will simply follow it's schedule. (No need to program multiple units) Unlimited LED units can be networked together using this method. Includes terrarium mounting brackets, side mounting brackets, hanging hardware, remote control, and detailed instructions.

Lamp Stand

Fully adjustable metal stand for dome and wire fixtures

Light Stand For Terrarium Heat Lamps Stand For Grow Lights
▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description
This lamp stand features adjustable height, adjustable length, bendable wire-holding clips, and an all-metal construction. We've used these stands over terrariums, small-scale plant propagation projects, and on tabletop displays. They are great for suspending specialty lamps (UVB / LED Grow / Etc) over a desired surface, and the sturdy metal base holds everything tightly. The stand is adjustable in two directions from 20-38in tall, and 8-15in deep. Everything locks in place with metal-on-metal screws for a secure hold. We tried a couple of other types of stand (adhesives, plastics, and smaller bases), but this relatively old-school option remains our top choice.

Plant Growth Compact Fluorescent Bulbs

Inexpensive generic bulbs appropriate for illuminating a vivarium or small grow area

Generic Plant Growth Bulb
▾ Show Description ▾
These super inexpensive bulbs are perfect for growing basic plants in smaller Vivariums & terrariums, and can be used in just about any common fixture with an appropriate wattage rating. We use these on a few of our vivariums where a little extra heat won't be a concern for the inhabitants, and where the plants included will be fairly basic. Depending on the brand available to us at the time, color temp ranges from 5000K-6400K, which falls within the ideal recommended spectrum for viewing and plant growth. Available in 13W for enclosures 13" and shorter, 18W for enclosures 13-18" high, 23W for enclosures up to 24" high, and 26W for horticultural or custom applications. The 13W, 18W, and 23W models fit all sizes of Exo Terra Compact Tops and Zoo Med Hoods. The 26W CFL should be used in a suspended deep dome fixture due to it's size & considerable heat output. Please visit our Vivarium Lighting Kits page to see which CFLs we'd recommend for your specific enclosure. (You'll get a discount on the CFLs and fixture that way, too!)

Plant Growth T5HO Bulbs

The same horticultural T5HOs we use to grow plants at NEHERP

Agricultural Plant Growth T5HO Bulbs
▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description
Our T5HO tubes offer plenty of output at a great price. These are from the same horticultural brand of T5HOs we use in our grow rooms at NEHERP, and you can see a bunch of them in action in our Grow Room Gallery. These are rated for 6400k color temperature, and their full spectrum light output ensures a naturally-realistic appearance. These are compatible with both of the Jumpstart T5HO fixtures we carry, as well as other brands of 24in and 48in fixtures on the market. If you've bought plants from NEHERP, you might have already seen what these bulbs can do! :-) T5HOs are rated in nominal length, with actual dimensions listed below the add to cart button.
Shipping Info For 48in Size
Due to the ever-raising prices at FedEx and USPS, the longer models are now getting whacked with a pretty big "oversize shipping fee". We sincerely apologize for the shipping cost (especially if you aren't local) on the longer bulbs, but our hands are tied for the moment. On the bright side, the dimensional weight the shippers follow allows us to ship up to 20 bulbs at the same price! If you are only looking for 1-2 bulbs and live far enough away to make shipping costs especially high, it may be worth visiting a local hydroponics shop for the 48in models. :-) Thankfully the 24in bulbs are well under the size cut-off for the fee, so shipping remains reasonable. :-)

Sunblaster LED

A tried & true commercial horticultural LED

Best Sunblaster LEDs For Terrariums

Note: Sizes listed are nominal. See dimensions below.

▾ Show Stats & Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description:
We've been using Sunblaster brand LEDs in our grow rooms since late 2017, and they've proven to be bulletproof reliable in our real-world tests. (0% failure rate!) The newer model available here produced 37% more PAR output (147µMol/M²S @ 12in PPFD*) in our 2023 tests. These are the highest output linear LEDs we've ever tested or carried for this price. The ideal 6400K color temperature (pure white) helps to accurately represent natural colors within bioactive terrariums. Beyond great output & aesthetics, these LEDs also feature a reasonably low operating temperature and can be daisy-chained together with either more Sunblaster LEDs or our T5HO UVB Combo fixtures. (Link cable included!) While relatively new to our website, these LEDs have been available to our walk-in showroom customers for a while now, and client feedback has been universally positive. Continue reading about the stands...
About The NEHERP-Exclusive LED Stands:
**AVAILABLE IN-CART AFTER ADDING A SUNBLASTER LED**
Sunblaster LEDs have always been high on our list of recommended lights, but needing to hang them from something above was always a drawback when it came to terrarium use. To help overcome that issue, we developed nifty adjustable LED stands which make installation super easy. Simply select the angle of illumination you'd like (0°, 15°, 30°) based on the specifics of your particular enclosure's design, and place the LED toward the front of the enclosure for best results. Once installed, the stand will elevate the LED slightly for improved airflow & increased heat dissipation, and allow for the perfect angle of illumination. Please note: These are rough prototype LED stands in Q2 2023, which will be further refined by Q3. NEHERP LED Stands are produced in Connecticut from food-safe, heat-resistant material. Sorry, our Terrarium LED stands aren't sold separately! Continue reading...
Other Information:
• Sunblaster LEDs and our T5HO + UVB Combo share a compatible power connector, and can be daisy-chained together!
• Sunblaster LEDs can easily be automated using a smart switch or outlet timer. (No remotes, apps, or other frequent failure-points)
• Sunblaster LEDs cannot be dimmed. Do not connect them to a dimmer switch, as damage to the LED driver may result.
• Not rated for water-contact. Please don't mount inside of any enclosure, or where these LEDs may come into contact with water.
• NEHERP Terrarium Stands are not affiliated with or endorsed by Sunblaster Horticultural Products, and were developed independently.
• Compatible w/our T5HO + UVB Combo.
• Compatible w/smart switches & outlet timers.
• Not dimmable. Do not connect to a dimmer.
• Not rated for contact with water/mist.
• Not rated/recommended for in-tank use.
• Stands are not affiliated with or endorsed by Sunblaster.

Sunblaster T5HO Fixture + Bulb

A top-quality horticultural light with the best reflector available

Best T5HOs For Terrariums

Note: Sizes listed are nominal. See dimensions below.

▾ Show Stats & Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description:
Sunblaster is our newest commercial-grade T5HO fixture. Their exclusive NanoTech reflector has a unique shape not found in most of the generic T5HO clones on the market, and the fixture itself features a slightly different & more sleek profile overall. This reflector is advertised to project a unique 103° pattern while capturing 99.9% of previously lost light. Another cool feature is the fact that we're able to daisy-chain up to eight units together using the included daisy chain cables. Hanging clips are included, but we strongly recommend our NEHERP Terrarium Light Stands for this fixture if you'll be using them over a terrarium. These include excellent plant growth bulbs, but for those whose animals need UVB output, Zoo Med's awesome German-made UVB Bulbs are an available upgrade in the cart!

About The NEHERP-Exclusive T5HO Stands:
**AVAILABLE IN-CART AFTER ADDING A SUNBLASTER T5HO**
T5HOs have always been high on our list of recommended inexpensive lighting solutions, but Sunblaster T5s have always had a drawback since the fixtures aren't flat on the bottom. This always required users to hang them from something above. To help overcome that issue, we developed nifty adjustable NEHERP Lighting stands which make installation super easy. Simply select the angle of illumination you'd like (0°, 15°, 30°) based on the specifics of your particular enclosure's design, and place the T5HO toward the front of the enclosure for best results. Once installed, the stand will elevate the fixture slightly for improved airflow & increased heat dissipation, and allow for the perfect angle of illumination. Sorry, these stands aren't sold separately! Continue reading...
Other Information:
• Sunblaster T5HOs and Sunblaster LEDs share a compatible power connector, and can be daisy-chained together!
• Sunblaster T5HOs can easily be automated using a smart switch or outlet timer. (No remotes, apps, or other frequent failure-points)
• Sunblaster T5HOs cannot be dimmed. Do not connect them to a dimmer switch, as damage to the T5HO ballast may result.
• Not rated for water-contact. Please don't mount inside of any enclosure, or where these T5HOs may come into contact with water.
• NEHERP Terrarium Stands are not affiliated with or endorsed by Sunblaster Horticultural Products, and were developed independently.
• Compatible w/our Sunblaster LEDs.
• Compatible w/smart switches & outlet timers.
• Not dimmable. Do not connect to a dimmer.
• Not rated for contact with water/mist.
• Not rated/recommended for in-tank use.
• Stands are not affiliated with or endorsed by Sunblaster.

While some bulky "T5HO hood" fixtures performed particularly poorly in our tests, most linear strip T5HO fixtures will be within 10% of each other. Sunblaster is a consistent top performer.

Value Grow Horizontal LEDs

A bright and budget-friendly LED for bioactive vivariums

Value Grow LEDs
▾ Show Description ▾
(Product photography represents V2 model - not updated V3 model!)
This is the third and best version of our original discount LED bulbs! These meter at nearly double the PAR & Lux output of the original "square diode" models while maintaining the same operating temperature. The improved drivers and diodes provide an awesome best bang for your buck in terms of raw performance. Value Grow LEDs produce full spectrum 6400K light while keeping things cooler than equivalent CFL bulbs. In our tests, these LEDs out-performed a competing SMD5050 "Square Diode" screw-in LED by over 50%, and meter roughly 4800+Lux and ~48µMol/M²S at 12in away. (If you are comparing brands, we recommend checking published PAR/PPFD statistics, since that's the data point which explains how well a light will grow plants!) Each LED unit comes with a 1 year replacement guarantee. Please visit our Vivarium Lighting Kits page to see which LEDs we'd recommend for your specific enclosure, and to get the best prices we offer on these.

Value Grow Spotlight LED

Value Grow Spotlight LEDs Value Grow Output Vivarium LED Fixture
▾ Show Description ▾
Value Grow Spotlight - Side and Bottom Views
 
Optional Wire Fixture
NEHERP Staff Description
Our Value Grow super high output grow light LEDs were originally selected for use in our indoor grow rooms, but their through-the-roof performance & statistics encouraged us to begin offering them on the site. We've been using Value Grow Spotlights in tests at NEHERP since 2014, and they've proven to be an incredibly high output solution for the price. In our tests, these 6000K spotlights metered over 525µMol/M²S of PAR light, and 44,500lux at 12in away. Value Grow Spotlights have optic lenses which focus the beam of light to a very tight 60° angle, in an effort to ensure plenty of light can penetrate through even the tallest enclosures. These are an appropriate choice for enclosures over 25in tall, but are too bright for us to use them for anything shorter. Longevity of these LEDs depends on allowing plenty of airflow to naturally flow through their aluminum heat sink, so we highly recommend pairing this bulb with the optional wire fixture. (Warranty is voided if used in a dome fixture!) Institutions and custom builders looking to build these LEDs into enclosed cabinets should incorporate a forced airflow solution into the design for best results. Manufacturer rated 30W driver, 36W chipset. Each LED unit comes with a 1 year replacement guarantee. Please visit our Vivarium Lighting Kits page to see which LEDs we'd recommend for your specific enclosure. (You'll get a discount on the LEDs and fixture that way, too!)

NEHERP Staff Description:
Zoo Med is the originator & innovator of the Deep Dome Fixture in this hobby. Between the brightly reflective inside, rugged black outside, and long-term proven reliability, we're glad to carry the whole line of Zoo Med Dome fixtures. The Mini & Standard Deep Dome Models are great for everything from Mercury Vapor Bulbs, Compact Fluorescent Bulbs, Ceramic Heat Emitters, Infrared Heat Projectors, UVB Bulbs, and of course traditional heat (incandescent) bulbs. The new "Nano" models are ideal for very small enclosures (or small areas to heat) when used in conjunction with low wattage nano bulbs. There's a separate cord and switch for every socket on each of these models, making them perfect for use with basic timers, thermostats, and more. Wattage ratings and dimensions for each model listed below the Add To Cart button. The oldest Zoo Med Deep Domes currently being used at NEHERP date back to the year 2000, back when the owner was still a high-school aged hobbyist. These are the absolute highest quality dome fixtures on the market.

Why we recommend Zoo Med UVB Bulbs

Zoo Med or Exo Terra UVB CFL

Zoo Med sets the standard for Reptile UVB lighting, and their user reviews are sky-high by comparison to other mainstream brands. Our recommendation goes a step further than that, though. While no manufacturer seems to print color temperature on their product packaging, Zoo Med's bulbs appear closer to the recommended 5000-6500K color temperature range than other brands. (Seen in the photo above) An appropriate color temperature like this one plays a big part in how naturally accurate a live vivarium will appear to the human eye. It's just an aesthetic observation, but that's important when we're working with a beautiful living environment. While many brands of UVB light will work, Zoo Med's bulbs will work and produce naturally accurate light for a live vivarium. :-)

Back To Product Description
NEHERP Staff Note About UVB:
Ultraviolet B light is a type of radiation which assists many species in the natural creation of vitamin D3. Vitamin D3 assists in strengthening bones, metabolizing calcium, and helps prevent certain problems associated with keeping Reptiles in captivity. Not all Reptile species will require a UVB light, so it's important to do your research before selecting a UVB light source. It's important to note that UVB light is not necessary for plant growth or health, and only needs to be provided if the animal species will benefit from it. For the best information regarding your specific animal species and it's potential for requiring UVB light, we recommend Googling "(Your Species) + UVB Requirements".
NEHERP Staff Description:
Zoo Med sets the standard in herp-hobby UVB producing bulbs. A few hobbyist-driven UVB comparisons showed Zoo Med's UVB products outperformed other major brand names for UVB output, and we're big fans of the ReptiSun line at NEHERP. On a visual (not related to UVB) note,the "cool" color temperature of Zoo Med's UVB Bulbs appears to fall somewhere between our recommended range of 5000-6700K, while other brands look far more yellow (less natural) for a live vivarium environment. Rated for 5% UVB output, and 30% UVA output.
Why We Recommend Zoo Med View Fixture Choice Advice Hide Fixture Choice Advice
Selecting A Fixture:
For most bioactive live vivariums, a UVB light source is added as a supplement to the lighting used to illuminate the enclosure. Everything in this paragraph assumes you'll be using one of our Vivarium Lighting Kits or recommended alternatives! If your enclosure is 12-13in deep (front to back), we'd recommend using a simple 12in terrarium hood. Enclosures of these dimensions are too shallow to fit a deep dome fixture along with an appropriate vivarium lighting solution. Exo Terra and Zoo Med both have great options, and we recommend matching the fixture to your enclosure when possible. Aquariums can use either fixture brand, but Zoo Med's is thinner and easier to fit! Both Zoo Med and Exo Terra enclosures are designed to fit two of their corresponding fixtures on top, so it'll look nice and perform well! Enclosures which are 18in or deeper (front to back) can utilize a simple Deep Dome Fixture which will reflect the optimum amount of light into the enclosure while keeping costs as low as possible. For other applications, don't hesitate to reach out via email for advice! For almost all enclosures, we typically add the UVB-containing fixture towards the background where the animal is most likely to bask. Placing your plant-growth lights towards the front will also encourage plants to grow towards the viewer, which looks great once things mature.

Zoo Med Terrarium Hoods

High quality hoods for screw-in CFLs, LEDs, or incandescent bulbs!

Zoo Med Naturalistic Terrarium Hood
▾ Show Description ▾
NEHERP Staff Description:
Zoo Med's terrarium hoods are made from a durable glossy black plastic which is thicker than most alternatives. Thanks to the heavier-duty components, these are the only horizontal hoods we carry which can support incandescent bulbs (up to 60W)! Their relatively thin footprint (front to back) makes them extremely useful for a variety of enclosure types and sizes, although they were specifically designed to fit perfectly on Zoo Med's Naturalistic Terrariums. The 12in models have one socket and one switch. The 18in models have two sockets and two switches. Both use a single plug.
Fitment Information:
These fixtures can support incandescent bulbs up to 60W and CFLs up to 26W with ease. The 12in model fits all Jungle Dawn & Value Grow Horizontal LEDs we carry up to 7.5in. If you'd like to use LEDs on the 18in model, it's important to use one (short) 9W Jungle Dawn in the shorter-socket, since the longer Jungle Dawn & Value Grow LEDs won't fit due to the hood's offset-socket setup. The larger side can fit the longer (up to 7.5in) LEDs without issue. If you'll be using an incandescent bulb and a CFL together in an 18in fixture, it's important to note that only Zoo Med's Reptisun UVB CFLs are the only ones in our lineup marketed for that purpose. Never mix LEDs with Incandescent or CFL bulbs in a single fixture since doing so will cause the LED to overheat.

Zoo Med Wire Light Fixture

High quality cage fixtures without the high cost

NEHERP Wire Fixture
▾ Show Description ▾
A clamp holder & 6ft switched cord (not shown) are both included!
NEHERP Staff Description:
Our wire cage light fixtures feature a porcelain base, heavy duty clamp holder, and a compact ~6in diameter. These are perfect for high heat applications like Mercury Vapor UVB bulbs, high wattage basking & heat lamps, ceramic heat emitters, and more. In addition, these are the included ideal fixture in all of our NEHERP Vivarium Lighting Kits which feature ultra high-output Vivarium LED Spotlights. A switch is included along the black 2-prong 6 foot power cord for convenience. The clamp portion (not shown in photo) is easily detachable if desired. Rated for applications up to 150W. 6in Diameter / 8.5in Height.
Manufacturer Description:
This ceramic base Clamp Lamp fixture is ideal for use with all types of incandescent lamps or Ceramic Heat Emitters. This Clamp Lamp fixture has a heat-resistant porcelain socket that handles up to 150 watts. The wire guard is safer than an aluminum reflector because it prevents unnecessary heat build up and possible hand burns.
