T-Rex Large Canyon Dish
These are ideal for small reptiles. They have "step" to help getting in and out of the dish. Easy to clean and are dishwasher safe.

Cactus Fruit
These are organic prickly pear fruit. Each pear has been de-spined. (though there may still be a few glochids) They are a great nutrition packed treat. These are available in a limited quantity.

Infrared Temp Gun 
The Pro Exotics PE-1 Infrared Temp Gun is a great basic unit at $25. It is our most affordable Temp Gun, yet it maintains the same great accuracy and durability of our more expensive units. With a range of -27F to +428F (easily switchable to -33C to +220C) and MAX/MIN/LOCK modes, the PE-1 will meet the needs of 95% of users, professionals and hobbyists alike. The PE-1 unit comes preset with a default emissivity setting of 95E. Whether shooting engine temperatures, food prep temperatures, or animal basking temperatures, the PE-1 is a terrific and reliable Temp Gun at an amazingly affordable price! (includes wrist strap)

Solarmeter 6.2 
The Solarmeter 6.2 is the most accurate hand held ultraviolet radiometer UVB meter on the market. And although it’s a “broad band” meter, it measures the complete UVB range (280 nanometers to 320 nanometers) it peak sensitivity is at 295nm. This is the main UVB needed to induce Vitamin D3 synthesis. This makes the Solarmeter 6.2 uvb meter the perfect choice to use to check the UVB output of reptile lamps.
This tool will save you hundreds of dollars over its life by enabling you to accurately determine when your bulbs need replacing and which ones are worth buying

                                                     

Deep Dome Light Fixture
Zoo Med's Deep Dome Lamp Fixture is designed with an extra long dome, which is perfect for use with large or long lamps including the T-Rex Active UVHeat, PowerSun UV, ReptiSun UVB compact fluorescent, and Avian Sun UVB compact fluorescent bulbs. The deep dome extends beyond the face of the lamp and prevents the lamp from "sticking out" of the end of the dome fixture. The highly polished aluminum surface inside the dome greatly increases UVB and UVA output compared to fixtures with a white surface inside the dome.
