Using the Exo Terra Solar Glo is easy. First, make sure your reptile's habitat has a suitable fixture for the bulb. Just screw the bulb into the fixture, and it's ready to go. Remember to position it at the right distance from your reptile's basking area to ensure they get the proper amount of light and heat. As for the distance, keep in mind it has an extended UVB penetration of over 30 cm (12 inches). When it comes to maintenance, check the bulb regularly for any signs of damage. If it looks cracked or starts to flicker, it's time to replace it. Also, don't touch the bulb with bare hands as the oils from your skin can cause it to overheat and reduce its lifespan. Finally, follow the manufacturer's guidelines on the bulb's lifespan and replace it as recommended to keep your reptile healthy.
