Directions
Assemble reptile terrarium with assortment of plants, rock dens, and bedding. Place the Slimline Reptile Fixture on top of the terrarium cover. A screen cover with door or center hinge is recommended, as it will allow the beneficial UV rays to reach the terrarium inhabitants easily, while allowing easy access to your reptile. Caution: Do not place fixture in direct contact with water. When mounting under a cabinet or hood, position the light fixture so the tropical lamp will provide maximum exposure of beneficial light to your reptile pets.

Questions

Just bought T8 Flourescent bulb replacement. What's the trick for getting old one out and putting new one in?
- There are a couple deep holes on the back side of the fixture. Using a long screwdriver, remove the screws that are down in the holes. This will allow you to remove the plastic bulb covering. The bulb twists out and just put the new one in and put the lens back on.

I see from some comments that the bulb can be changed - how do you open the case to change the bulb?
- there are screws on the back but there hard to reach so you might want to buy a small screw but remember to unscrew the right screws because others can take you to the wires

The Zilla Desert Series 50 Strip Lamp has a note on it that reads, "Remove lens for UVA and UVB output ." Should it be removed?
