Their simple design makes routine maintenance easier while keeping your lighting arrangement looking tidy and professional.

Frogfather Insight
Many keepers focus on choosing the correct UVB lamp but pay less attention to the installation itself. A purpose-designed support helps create a cleaner, more consistent setup that’s easier to maintain over time than improvised solutions.
Common Installation Mistakes
- Supporting each end of the fitting with different objects.
- Blocking ventilation around the light.
- Balancing the fixture on temporary spacers.
- Using supports that aren’t designed for the lighting profile.
- Not checking the manufacturer’s recommended mounting distances.

These supports are designed for compatible Zoo Med® ReptiSun® T5 HO lighting systems. Please compare your lighting unit with the product photographs and compatibility information before ordering.

UVB & Lighting Safety Review
Last reviewed: 5 September 2026
This product guidance has been reviewed against peer-reviewed amphibian UVB/vitamin D research and current Frogfather husbandry guidance.
Important: a riser, stand or mount positions a lamp; it does not by itself establish a safe or appropriate UVB exposure. UVB reaching an animal depends on the lamp and reflector, distance, mesh or other obstruction, angle, enclosure layout and the species being kept. Where UVB is used, provide a gradient with effective shade and assess exposure at animal level rather than choosing a setup from the percentage printed on the lamp alone.
Published amphibian evidence supports a biological role for UVB and vitamin D3, but does not establish one universal UVB requirement or one fixed lamp percentage/distance for all amphibians or all dart frogs.
