The Pet Center: Vita-Lite
can add the critical, natural ingredient to the aquarium environment: indoor
sunshine! Vita-Lite promotes the life and growth of fish, while maintaining the
delicate balance between fish and plant life.
Caged snakes that had
refused food began eating again after Vita-Lite replaced Cool White fluorescent
lighting. Most reptiles, including turtles, exposed to Vita-Lite will increase
activity.
Natural Light For Living
Things! Male turkeys kept under Vita-Lite maintained sexual potency which was
lost for those kept under ordinary Cool White fluorescents.
Help Your Pets Stay Vital
and Healthy with Indoor Sunshine!
Millions of years ago, life on earth evolved under sunlight, a "full
spectrum" of visible color and invisible ultraviolet energy. Things haven't
changed in today's world. Sunlight is still a vital element - as essential as
food, air, and water - for all living things! That's why the right light is so
important when it comes to your pets.
Sunlight in a
Fluorescent Tube!
Pets need the benefits of full-spectrum light to help them stay vital and
healthy. Vita-Lite delivers both the color spectrum of sunlight plus the
healthful ultraviolet of natural outdoor light that's so important to your pet's
well-being.
Vita-Lite Makes a Difference!
Living creatures thrive under Vita-Lite, the original full-spectrum fluorescent.
They live naturally - the way they would outdoors in natural sunlight! Studies
comparing Vita-Lite to ordinary light sources show that Vita-Lite makes a
definite, beneficial difference to animals. Here are some examples of
Vita-Lite's tremendous effect on a per's Health and well-being:
With Reptiles: Vita-Lite provides the needed ultraviolet part of the spectrum
that allows reptiles to produce vitamin D endogenously. Caged snakes that had
refused food began eating again after Vita-Lite replaced Cool White fluorescent
lighting. Most reptiles, including turtles, exposed to Vita-Lite will increase
activity.
With Birds:
Vita-Lite enables breeders to regulate the breeding cycles of birds. (Chicken
breeders and egg farm managers have long known that days lengthened with
artificial light will cause hens to lay more eggs.) Under Vita-Lite, the rare
Tufted Puffin bird laid fertile eggs and produced offspring for the first time
in captivity. Male turkeys kept under Vita-Lite maintained sexual potency which
was lost for those kept under ordinary Cool White fluorescents.
With Animals: Male
Hamsters kept under Vita-Lite fluorescent light (vs. Cool White) had improved
skeletal development, increased body weight, and one-fifth the incidence of
dental decay.
Rhesus monkeys, sickly after government quarantine, were placed in a Vita-Lite
environment. After 60 days, the animals' respiratory and digestive problems
disappeared and their physical activity dramatically increased. For hamsters on
a high carbohydrate diet, incidence of dental caries under ordinary Cool White
fluorescents was five times greater than under Vita-Lite; severity was 10 times
greater.
With Fish: Fish:
Vita-Lite can add the critical, natural ingredient to the aquarium environment:
indoor sunshine! Vita-Lite promotes the life and growth of fish, while
maintaining the delicate balance between fish and plant life. Fish and aquatic
plants appear as they would under natural outdoor light - there's no color
distortion or cosmetic coloration.
Fluorescents That
Favor Your Pet Projects. Vita-Lite was engineered to simulate natural outdoor
light. At a color temperature of 5500 degrees Kelvin, Vita-Lite's natural white
light visually matches natural daylight (sun plus sky). That's why it provides
an ideal environment for all birds, animal, and reptiles.

ordinary light sources. It's "natural light for living things."
