Are VivTech LED UV Bulbs Safe for your Reptile?

Описание: We discuss the Vivtech UV LED bulbs, the spectrum they produce and if they are safe for your reptile.

Ryan and Erica McVeigh are the founders of the newly launched reptile brand, VivTech. In this episode, Ryan discusses why they decided to start VivTech as well as some of the issues with large corporate reptile brands. Ryan also talks about the importance of supporting both USARK and conservation initiatives and explains how he has folded that into the brand's mission. Of course, we talk about the current VivTech products available including the UV LED bulbs, and the future tech Ryan plans on bringing to herpetoculture within the next few years.
