Terrarium Substrate Heater.• Ideal for dry or desert terrariums• For under tank mounting• Conductive heat source for reptiles and arachnids• Helps in thermo-regulating, important for metabolism, digestion, appetite and activity• Safe, even heat distributionThe Desert substrate heater simulates heated sand beds by the sun in deserts. The amount of hours a day and the strength of the sun in these regions can generate extreme hot surfaces. The substrate is dry and does not increase the air humidity as seen in rainforests or tropical areas. The power of the Heat Wave Desert substrate heater is designed to safely create these conditions in the terrarium.Perfect for bottom dwellers when mounted under the terrarium.Perfect for tree bottom reptiles when mounted on the back or the sides of the terrarium. Reptiles are ectotherms, or cold-blooded. In their natural biotope reptiles often use surfaces heated by the sun (brunches, rocks, sand or the forest floor) as a heat-conductor. The Heat Wave Desert Substrate heater simulates this be heating the substrate of the terrarium. It is important to leave sufficient ”cold spots” to provide the animals with options and make thermo-regulation possible. The Heat Wave Desert Substrate Heater should not be used without substrate in order to prevent reptiles from being burned. The efficiency of the Heat Wave Desert substrate Heater depends on the kind of substrates are more conductive than others. It is recommended to use the Heat Wave Desert Substrate Heater only for dry or desert terrariums with sand or gravel substrates for optimal results. Full instruction manual provided
