A light assembly for enclosed animal habitats, such as terrariums and aquariums, is provided. The assembly includes a light source, and a reflective luminous surface arranged with respect to the light source to absorb energy from the light source while the light source is turned on, and to emit the stored light for a finite period of time after the light source is turned off. The light assembly is designed to simulate natural light. In one embodiment, the light assembly includes a fixture that generally resembles a conventional light fixture with a reflector, socket and power source connection, with the reflector having a highly reflective, luminous coating that continues to glow to direct light and/or heat to the interior of the habitat after the lamp or heater is turned off.
