Lampka Full Moon terrarium lighting, Exo Terra EX-3607 – nocturnal blue moonlight for reptiles and amphibians

Exo Terra Lampka Full Moon (EX-3607) is a compact terrarium lighting accessory that simulates natural moonlight for reptiles and amphibians. Designed to reproduce a dim blue spectrum night light, it enables nighttime observation without interrupting normal animal behaviour or altering natural day–night cycles. The unit features a textured, cratered surface to replicate a moon-like appearance and emits very low heat to preserve a natural nocturnal temperature drop inside the enclosure.

Advantages

The Full Moon provides soft blue-spectrum illumination that allows crepuscular and nocturnal species to navigate, forage and communicate while reducing stress from sudden bright lighting. An integrated light sensor ensures the lamp switches on automatically when ambient light levels fall, and its low energy consumption and minimal heat output make it suitable for continuous night use. The strong magnet mount allows straightforward installation on the inside of a mesh or screen lid without tools.

Suitable for

• Nocturnal and crepuscular reptiles and amphibians
• Night-time observation and photography of terrarium inhabitants
• Breeding setups requiring naturalistic night cycles
• Display terraria where visible night lighting is desired without disturbance

Key specifications

• Blue-spectrum nocturnal illumination for observation without disturbance
• Low heat emission to allow natural night temperature fluctuations
• Integrated light sensor for automatic on/off at low ambient light
• Textured, cratered surface for realistic moon appearance
• Magnetic mounting for installation on internal screen or mesh lids
• Low power consumption suitable for extended night operation

How to use

Install the Full Moon on the inside of the terrarium’s screen or mesh cover using the built-in magnet so the light faces the interior. Place it opposite or offset from primary daytime lighting to maintain a clear day–night rhythm. The lamp will automatically illuminate when ambient light decreases; verify placement so the light sensor is not shaded by decorations or external lighting. Periodically check battery or power source (depending on model) and clean the surface gently to maintain light output and sensor function.

Usage recommendations

Position the Full Moon where it provides gentle, diffuse illumination across the enclosure without shining directly into animal resting areas. Use it as part of a lighting schedule that includes a brighter daytime heat/source lamp and a natural night period to support normal behaviour, feeding and breeding cycles.
