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!

Best Plant Lights For Bioactive Terrariums

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! :-)

Non-Stock Product Recommendation:

Current Satellite LED Plus

A high quality lighting solution with adjustable colors & special effects

▾ Show Description ▾

NEHERP Staff Recommendation:
Current Satellite LEDs offer a great balance between reliability, features, and price. We're fans of Current-USA especially due to their level of quality control and reliability, which is a tough subject for other brands. The Satellite LED combines bright 6500K (daylight spectrum) white LEDs with full-spectrum RGB diodes to offer a wide range of customizable colors & brightness levels. The diodes disperse light over a wide 120 degree angle to provide ample coverage. The remote is simple to use, and has four user-customizable preset buttons to recall your favorite settings. There are a bunch of other special effects too, including cloud cover, fading lunar, storm, lightning, dusk, and more which can be triggered with the push of a button. The unit resumes it's last-used setting when used with any typical outlet timer. The legs of the unit slide in and out of the fixture's body, and are a cinch to fit to any enclosure in the marketed range of each model. We recommend these for enclosures up to (but not exceeding) 16in tall. These aren't currently available at NEHERP, so check the links below!

Current Satellite LED Plus PRO

A high quality lighting solution with adjustable colors & special effects

▾ Show Description ▾

NEHERP Staff Description
The Satellite LED+ Pro has a 178% higher PAR output, and a roughly 150% greater lumen rating than the standard Satellite Plus model. Although more expensive, the Pro units actually offer a better bang for your buck in terms of Lumen & PAR ratings per dollar. These much more powerful LEDs also include a ramp timer to help automatically emulate natural sunrise and sunset every day. With the timer set, the morning sunrise will gradually brighten towards your own customizable "daylight" setting over the course of 15 minutes. When night rolls around, the LED will slowly dim towards your customizable "night" setting, convincingly replicating a natural sunset. (It's a seriously cool effect which we're big fans of at NEHERP!) Current Satellite LED+ Pro units feature a mix of 6500K "daylight" white and RGB-controllable diodes for total control of the color pallet and brightness levels. The Satellite Pro remote also has storm, cloud, lightning, and other special effects which can be triggered at will. Thanks to the higher PAR output, we recommend these LEDs for enclosures up to 24in tall.

Exo Terra Compact Tops

Our favorite fixtures for screw-in LEDs & CFLs

▾ 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. Optional accessories like Exo Terra's Digital Thermometer and Hygrometer can be slid into the special sliding rim on the top of the canopy for a great finished look. 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.

Jump Start T5HO Fixtures w/Bulbs

With Integrated Timers + Terrarium Appropriate Bulbs

Jumpstart T5HO Fixture Extras For Terrariums

▾ Show Description ▾

Standard Fixture Shown - View Optional Extras Optional Extras Shown - View Standard Fixture
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 Dawn Horizontal LEDs

The original and best selling vivarium-specialty LED!

▾ Show Description ▾

The original vivarium LED bulb features a vented fixture body, a mixed color spectrum, and extremely bright LED diodes! Thanks to superior diode and driver quality, these LEDs offer some of the best measurable PAR & Lux specs of any horizontal LED we've tested. Jungle Dawn screw-in vivarium LED bulbs display colors accurately and grow plants with ease. The super-bright, mixed-color temperature LEDs provide an excellent lumen-per-watt ratio to brightly and accurately illuminate any vivarium. Jungle Dawn LEDs produce less heat than normal CFLs, produce higher levels of PAR light, and use less than half the electricity. All Jungle Dawn bulbs have a 300-degree swiveling base, to ensure the user can safely adjust the light straight down into the enclosure. All Jungle Dawn LEDs carry a 1-year NEHERP backed warranty. 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!)

Jungle Dawn LED Bar

A high output linear LED solution

▾ Show Price & Description ▾

NEHERP Staff Description These new LED Bars represent color naturally (6200K) while providing an absolutely awesome amount of PAR light. Considering the increased output of these, we'd consider them viable for enclosures ranging from 22-32in tall. Some folks will have good results with even taller enclosures, if there aren't too many light-demanding plants down low. If you are looking for a lighting solution for even taller enclosures, we'd recommend checking out Jungle Dawn Spotlights.

Jungle Dawn Spotlight LED

The ultimate high-output spotlight for tall enclosures

Mega Jungle Dawn LED 40W High Output Vivarium LED

Mega Jungle Dawn LED 40W High Output Vivarium LED Fixture

▾ Show Description ▾

NEHERP Staff Description
The Jungle Dawn LED Spotlight is our highest output LED, and has a ton of features often sought after for illuminating tall (over 28in) enclosures. Very high PAR, Lumen, and CRI ratings are paired with a 6500K color temperature to provide a natural looking solution to grow flora in very tall enclosures. Unique features include diodes with 60º focused lenses, an internal cooling fan, an efficient aluminum heat sink, and a 40,000-hour rated life. This is an incredibly versatile LED, and the best-priced option for many taller enclosures. It's incredibly high output can easily over-power shorter enclosures, so it's strictly recommended for enclosures between 28-48in tall. Our specially selected compact wire light fixture allows for plenty of air flow for the built-in (silent-running) cooling fan, and is an ideal solution for this LED.

Jungle Hobbies Advanced LED (Single)

The ultimate vivarium lighting solution

▾ 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.

Jungle Hobbies Advanced LED (Double)

The ultimate vivarium lighting solution

▾ 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 36-48in wide. For thinner enclosures, we recommend the Jungle Hobbies Advanced Single unit.

Lamp Stand

Fully adjustable metal stand for dome and wire fixtures

▾ 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

▾ 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 32W for horticultural or custom applications. The 13W, 18W, and 23W models fit all sizes of Exo Terra Compact Tops and Zoo Med Hoods. The 32W CFL must 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

▾ 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 Strips

An awesome value on a high output linear LED solution

Sunblaster LED Bars For Bioactive Terrariums

▾ Show Price & Description ▾

NEHERP Staff Description
We love these things. Very few terrarium lights are serious enough to hold up to commercial grow room use, but these Sunblaster units are an exception. We've been using a couple dozen of these LEDs in our hot & humid grow rooms for over two years, and have never seen one fail. PAR output on the 48in model over 116µMol/M²S @ 12in according to the manufacturer, making it one of the best bangs for the buck we offer. The shorter sizes will likely meter a bit less, but the performance we've seen thus far has greatly exceeded our expectations. (NEHERP in-house PAR/Lux testing will happen in 2021) They don't run too hot, and unlike fluorescent lights won't require periodic replacement. Sunblaster LEDs are absolutely ideal for terrarium use, thanks to their naturally-accurate 6400K daylight color spectrum and high level of PAR output. There's no better quality linear-style LED for the price!

Value Grow Horizontal LEDs

A bright and budget-friendly LED for bioactive vivariums

▾ 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

A super-bright high output light for tall bioactive vivariums

▾ 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!)

Wire Light Fixture

The perfect fixture for LED Spotlights & Heat Emitting Bulbs

Wire Lamp Fixture For LED Spotlights and Bioactive Terrariums

▾ Show Price & Description ▾

NEHERP Staff Description:
This wire lamp fixture is our top recommendation for use with our Jungle Dawn and Value Grow LED Spotlights. It's wide base allows for either LED to fit, unlike some of the lower-end options out there. With a max rating of 150W and a ceramic base, it's also a great solution for heat emitters, mercury vapor bulbs, and more. It's open construction allows for rapid heat dissipation around the bulb, which is absolutely critical for many different types of lights and emitters. Includes a basic clamp holder, 6ft wire, and inline on and off switch.

Zoo Med ReptiSun UVB Compact Fluorescent Bulbs

The #1 Fluorescent UVB Reptile Lamp

▾ Show Description ▾

Why we recommend Zoo Med UVB Bulbs

Zoo Med sets the standard for Reptile UVB lighting, and their user reviews are sky-high by comparison to a few 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 should be provided only 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.

Before we switched our grow rooms over to more modern LED technology, we relied on over 300 Jumpstart T5HO Fixtures (1200+ linear feet!) to get the job done. These were the main workhorse of our grow rooms, and they were by far the most reliable brand of T5HO fixture we tested. Jumpstart fixtures aren't rebranded & marked-up for the reptile hobby, they are a workhorse horticultural fixture that's been around for 10+ years. To put it simply, we wouldn't carry this brand if there was a better alternative available, and we're confident you'll be satisfied with it's performance. Each Jumpstart T5HO fixture has a built-in (8-12) hour timer which is ideal for circadian rhythm. While there is a built-in timer, they are also compatible with standard plug timers & timed power centers, if your particular setup uses either. On a related note, these come with what will be an "extra" horticultural T5HO bulb at no extra cost.

About Zoo Med UVB Tubes
Zoo Med's T5HO UVB Bulbs have always been our shop favorite, and the performance is tough to beat. Please check Zoo Med's Chart for information about ideal usage & effective range. Those are important data points to keep in mind while planning your terrarium's basking spot and picking a bulb. Zoo Med's T5HOs have a daylight color spectrum (~6000-6500K range), which looks absolutely great over a live vivarium.

Zoo Med Terrarium Hoods

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

▾ 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.
