Would this work well for a ball python? Does it come with anything for humidity?

Answer by ChewyApr 19, 2024
This product includes a reflective Dome, Day Blue Incandescent Bulb, Screen Cover, Humidity/Temperature Gauge, Heat Mat, Green Terrarium Liner, and a Setup Guide. This kit would not be suitable for a ball python.

Would this be appropriate for two baby red ear slider turtles?

Answer by ChewyApr 23, 2018
Small aquariums are good for young turtles but as red eared sliders mature they will require a tank that can hold well over 100 gallons of water.

Is there a possibility then I can use this 10 gallon tank for my bearded dragon? I went to the pet store recently and the gentleman told me that I have an 8 inch bearded dragon. Should I increase gradually and start with this kit or start with a 20 gallon and proceed from there?

Answer by ChewyMar 12, 2018
Baby Bearded Dragons need at least a 20 gallon tank to start.

Would this environment be suitable for a hermit crab?

Answer by ChewyMay 07, 2019
This kit may be suitable as a starter home for a hermit crab.

Tank is great, but

The tank itself is great. The feet it comes with are cheap and the adhesive doesn’t hold. That pet is easily fixable, but it’d be great if they’d upgrade the size

Quality Terrarium

Sturdy and seems well built. Comes with all you need to set up a habitat for a reptile besides drinking/ feeding dishes and decor. My son loves it!

Pretty Good Depending on Animal

Overall an okay basic setup. However it really depends on what you wish to put in it. I especially advise researching the creature you plan on putting in it to make

Overall an okay basic setup. However it really depends on what you wish to put in it. I especially advise researching the creature you plan on putting in it to make sure this setup is adequate. This basic kit is only suitable for certain types of animals. For example it is a very small enclosure.

Regular Degular

I assumed the starter kit would've came with a hideout too but it did not. Shipping was fast and everything was fine except my lid to the terrarium came bent inside
