Penn-Plax Floating Turtle Pier Platform
Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again.
The Penn-Plax Floating Turtle Pier Platform has everything a basking platform needs for turtles, frogs, newts or salamanders. It’s designed to float at water level and allows you to maintain an ideal water level while compensating for evaporation. The textured ramp secures to the edge of the platform and leads down into the water for easy access to the basking ledge. Extension pylons are included to adjust the height up to 12" (small) or 16" (large), and the smaller platform includes an optional filter holder that fits the Penn-Plax Reptology Internal Filter 45 (sold separately). This platform looks like a real pier and works great in both small and large tanks.

Awesome platform + great customer service!
By Juice on Mar 3, 2021
Bought this for my baby painted turtle but it’s way too big for his tank just yet. Called to return, they refunded me and let me keep the item! So I gave it to my ball python. She loves it. 5/5 excellent product

I use for my snakes
By Luvmyreps on Dec 14, 2020
I know this is meant for turtles. I bought it intending to use it for my corn snakes. It is in one of my 40g enclosures. I used hot glue to prevent the 'floating' affect it is meant to have for the turtles. I know the glue will peel off easily if I ever want to change it's use or change the height of the deck. I wrapped faux Ivy and other artificial greens around the poles giving my corn snake cover when he uses it. It's a fun, different use. It does take up a good portion of my enclosure but I put two water dishes on the same end as the platform. The remaining amount has five hides and thick substrate. I plan to add more greenery and am trying to decide if I will use a hammock or try a bridge I know this is meant for turtles. I bought it intending to use it for my corn snakes.

Great for basking
By HGK1 on Jan 9, 2021
This is larger than our old one and my red-eared slider is loving it! He stretches out and basks under the sun or lamp most of the day. The old one had ridges that his nails sometimes got caught in; they have fixed that in this model.

Great size platform!
By Turtle on Nov 30, 2020
My turtle loves this platform! It took a week or so before he got up there, but it's a perfect size for him. It's great that it's floating because he can still swim underneath. Definitely recommend for larger aquatic turtles!

Great for some but not for me
By Raphael99 on Sep 15, 2020
I absolutely hate it, my turtle doesn't like it at all. He goes across the tank instead of going to close to it
