The Skylight MIDSPOT V55 Terrarium Light is a focused LED spotlight designed for tall, vertical planted terrariums and vivariums. Unlike wide-spread terrarium lights, the MIDSPOT range is made to send stronger light deeper into taller enclosures, helping plants in the lower and middle sections receive better usable light. The V55 version has a wider beam than the V25, making it suitable when a broader light spread is needed in vertical terrarium layouts.
The Skylight MIDSPOT V55 is especially useful for terrariums with bromeliads, mosses, ferns, orchids, Bucephalandra, Marcgravia, climbing plants and tropical vivarium plants. Skylight notes that MIDSPOT lamps are effective in encouraging carotenoid production in plants such as bromeliads, helping improve colour expression in suitable terrarium plants. It can be placed on the glass top of a vivarium, and metal mesh tops are also allowed.
With 14W power, 1400 lumens, 6200K colour temperature and a recommended terrarium size of 30 × 30 × 75cm, the Skylight MIDSPOT V55 is ideal for hobbyists who need strong, focused lighting for tall planted enclosures. It can also be paired with Skylight MID-30 lamps when stronger lighting is needed across both the top and bottom sections of the terrarium.
