Uvb 5.0 is what I used for my turtles, the 10.0 may burn their eyes. Remember this only provides daylight, its not hot. You need an extra source of heat so they bask in the sun. Also new uvb lights give off a higher intensity in the beginning, so I suggest keeping it at a further distance for the first two weeks of use.

Yes. You'll also need a heat lamp but you can use a regular light incandescent light bulb for heat. You'll have 2 lights above the basking area.

I am not an expert, but I believe this would work for you provided you do not place it where your turtle will get too close to it (it doesn't get very hot, but it could give off too much UV).

It is great!!! I use a 1.0 bulb for my breathed dragon. Real sun light too.

I believe LR41 is what you are looking for...Energizer, Streamlight, eGear, and others have lights that are similar using that type.

Yes. Just a standard bulb. For fish or reptiles switch it out for a uva/uvb bulb or plant bulb

The light works well, you might have to use a different switch for outdoors. I installed on my sons dodge pick up and he used it to hunt nilgia deer.

I would use 100W light bulbs at the least if no other light source is available. Also, the light you use must NOT be of the flourescent type. You only really need the required light around the Chrony ;^)

This is a continuous light. You would need one of the flash ones....there are some here on Amazon.

In my opinion this light is ok for some applications but anemones require a more intense light than this particular fixture is able to provide. LED lights are an economical way to provide light but you need a more powerful one than this unless you have him right under it in a 2 gallon bowl. Good Luck.

No, but it will stress out the fish or animals to have the light on 24/7. They need a cycle of light and dark so I recommend getting a timer.

I don't wan't to tell you yes when I truly don't know. I can tell you,I have the stream light stinger DS. LED and it works great for a light of that style. Hope this helps you out

The light works fine. It has different settings depending on how much light you need.

I would not recommend this light if you are looking for bright lighting. The light only focuses on the middle of the tank, leaving darker spots on the edge. My 10 gallon tank has this problem, where it is insufficient light.

I'm not sure if it is the same bulb you need for a reptile heat source, it probably is the same; the "10" bulb means that you are buying 10 bulbs in quantity. They are very good and the customer service there is the best.

the wavelengths needs to be 660 regular red bulbs doesn't have infrared wavelengths one you might want to use is the hand held with led technology I have the panels and you can see results I am a older adult and it has tightened my skin and helped with my pain it is called dpl or deep penetrating light.

As a general light, yes. Depending on the turtle, many need UVA and UVB lights to grow and digest food. This light only has room for one bulb and cannot house both requirements for most tutrles or reptiles.

Home depo or lowes perhaps if not you can find it online, just google the type of light bulb you need, use whatever information is on the old one

Each light has its own plug so it shouldn't be a problem. Just be careful because most animals shouldn't be using over 100 watt bulbs.
