Quick and Easy Set Up:
1)Terrarium Liner: Unroll and place the included Terrarium Liner on the bottom of the terrarium, making it as flat as possible. You may trim some of the length with a scissor if it is too long.
2)Humidity and Temperature Gauge: Attach suction cup to the hole in the back of the Humidity and Temperature Gauge and affix the suction cup to the back of the terrarium. Generally, placement in the center, closer to the bottom of the terrarium, will result in more accurate readings.
3)Screen Cover and Screen Clips: Remove all plastic and tags from screen cover and place on top of terrarium. Install screen clips by following directions in Tropical Kit Care Guide.
4) Reflector Dome and Light Bulbs: Screw bulbs into Reflector Domes. Place the Day White spot on top of the screen cover on one side of the terrarium and the Night Black Heat bulb on the opposite side. Plug in Reflector Domes and flip switch to illuminate.
Note: Night Black Heat bulb will not emit much visible light. If you feel heat around the dome and bulb (without touching them), the lamp is working properly.

Great enclosure. Very fitting for a baby Bearded dragon. The perfect size. The first terrarium we received was missing a few parts but after talking with Chewy customer service they made it right and Now our bearded dragon is in heaven. This enclosure is perfect for a small reptile or as a feeder tank. This kit has everything you need to start your desert dwelling reptile off. Keep in mind that this kit does not include a UVB light with some reptiles need to digest calcium properly. A list of all items included in the kit are listed right on the packaging.

Terrarium is great! The lights however lasted about a week. Both had to be replaced before next shipment!

Received this tank 4 business days after ordering, despite the 1-2 day shipping option. Received the tank, instead of a day light and a night light, received 2 day lights. Included day lights are 50w, which managed to heat the tank to a toasty 70 degrees F. Not good at all. So I went out to a brick and mortar store and bought the night light, better day lights, and also bigger fixtures for both as the included ones are TINY - only the 50w bulbs will fit in them. Not impressed.
