HerpCult Acrylic Insect & Reptile Terrarium

Exceeded my expectations. Our Mexican fireleg t. came with a critter keeper, but has a few molts to go before we'll need anything big(ger) for it. The critter keeper was old and sad so we had to get it something nice, this was perfect. No breakage upon delivery, the tank is acrylic and has plenty of ventilation holes. The top slides out and is secured with magnets-just make sure whatever you choose to put in it isn't a bolter. We bought two and don't currently have anything small enough to go in the second, so it makes for a nice baby cacti home right now.

I’m dissatisfied with this product for a number of reasons. The sliding door on the top is difficult to slide on a good day... I keep a tarantula in mine and they absolutely hate vibrating movements. The door shakes the entire enclosure. They sliding door also does not match up with the magnetic strip to lock it in place. The acrylic also came apart on the side so I have mine held together with duct tape... not the aesthetically pleasing enclosure I was hoping for. Save your money, get a critter keeper.

I'm very disappointed. I received two of these and was expecting the same excellent quality that I regularly get from purchasing HerpCult (I have been a customer for years now), but this batch seemed to be unfinished. The acrylic edges were sharp and unfinished, and the fronts broke right off of both of them. I'm waiting on some acrylic bonder so I can repair them. I hope this was just an issue with a small batch. If this degradation in quality is the result of HerpCult scaling up manufacturing, they won't have their excellent reputation for long.

I’m sure majority of the enclosures they send are perfect, I have 2 other arboreal ones that are great and don’t have anything weird about it. I noticed the weirdness of this particular box because it kept making a weird noise since I got it when I picked it up, I figured because it had a bigger lid. Turns out I’ve never noticed the corner edge where 2 walls meet, is actually not glued, you can see how the glue built up towards the bottom and didn’t bond the top of the edge. I know I can fix it but it’s simi a problem since I’m housing a tarantula and want to ensure the safety and security of the pet.

Got large with opaque top. Opaque top was.. on the bottom? So it didn't actually impact me seeing my spider. But it looks beautiful! Definitely worth the investment. Couldn't ask for better really. Looks SO much better than the storage bin we were using before. Really draws attention to the setup. Can't rate high enough!

This is a high quality enclosure, and worth the cost. The little magnets are surprisingly strong, and the box itself is sturdy and well made. I'm housing my Brazilian Black tarantula in it, and I expect it to last her the rest of her life. It does have ventilation holes on the top, so it might not work for species with very high humidity needs.

Both enclosures came with minor scratches but they are awesome and can’t beat this price. They are sturdy, good material, ventilation and safety lid.

Love the magnetic locking mechanism. Good size. Shipping time just took a while. I will be back again.

Got it today and I love it but not sure how my trantula will love got to wait for a week before anything else can be done

I feel safe knowing my tarantula can’t escape with the magnets and that the top is clear so I can see her from every angle. Only thing is I wish they came in taller heights instead of only 6 inches.
