Great quality! I ordered this Zilla Tropical T8 light for my bearded dragons enclosure. I have him in a 55 gallon tank that we converted from a fish tank to a reptile tank so I needed something larger than a dome light.

Those bulbs are not cheap, $25 at least. It’s very frustrating to have a light fixture that shorts them out in a few days. I will not purchase this item again or recommend it. Very disappointed. I had an…
