Tank is OK
By Lwils4542 on Mar 9, 2021
The tank itself is OK for the price. It comes with the BARE BARE minimum of accessories. the photos make it look like it comes with leaves, vines, etc but it does not. The list on the box looks long but its really just some hulabaloo about the tank itself and its "features". its no better than any other 12x12x18 bare tank i have purchased. I have a reptile in it, it works, but know it doesnt come with a lot.

Good terrarium but the starter kit sorta sucks
By bean on Jan 25, 2021
The terrarium itself is a great size and hold up well. Came in great condition and is water proof on the bottom and 5 inches up. Overall, terrarium is great. The starter kit however, is iffy. I didn't use the coco substrate it came with because I had bought other substrate for my small crested gecko. The light that came with it doesn't work very well. I can't set it on top of the mesh top because my crestie climbs and I don't want to burn him, but I needed a light because I live in a cold region. The mini blue day light is eh. If you need a good heat lamp, that is NOT it. The dual temp and hydro gauge also sucks. The gauge is quite a bit inaccurate and very finicky.

There can be water droplets in my tank on the glass that the hydro meter will read 40% humidity but when there isn't any moisture it says 60%. The temperature gauge is also really hard to read because it is very small and has no lines in-between tens (aka only goes 60, 70, 80, etc.) I need a temp gauge that is easier to read and also a bit more accurate. … more

Perfect for Small White's Tree Frog
By LLMZ on Jan 20, 2021
This small kit was the perfect size for a young White's Tree Frog. He will need a larger habitat when he gets bigger. The kit comes with almost everything you need. I just added an artificial plant and vine and a larger bowl. The included bowl is too small for water. It can be used as a feed bowl.

Perfect habitat
By Sunnie on Feb 16, 2021
Complete package as is but I added materials to set up a BioActive habitat for my tarantula.

Great for Dumpy Tree Frog!
By Milo on Sep 25, 2020
Perfect for a lazy tree frog. My frog baby loves her house. Easy to clean with the front door option. Makes feeding time really easy as well! She loves it! It is a little flimsy for the price but I’ve had mine for a year and it’s in good condition overall! I definitely recommend this!

Great Setup
By RSB2 on May 5, 2020
This overall is a great setup for someone getting a new crested gecko. Comes with the basics. You’ll definitely have more to buy though. The background is nice, top clips on securely, and door/latch is very secure. My little guy seemed to like the setup I made in it for him! Great tank for the money

everything is good other than the temp gauge.
By yeah on Apr 7, 2020
The terrarium- nice size, nice top that clips on well. The background- overall pretty nice other than the holes where a baby reptile can get in. The water dish- nice size, pretty thick so I imagine it would be pretty sturdy. The temperature-humidity gauge- actual garbage. The heat lamp- it works well and keeps the temperature nice, but it broke- not physically, it just stopped working- after I dropped it from about two feet. Overall, I would recommend this, just try not to drop the lamp.

Reasonably Priced
By Kitten on Apr 10, 2020
Some of the things included in this kit aren't great. But, I needed this size enclosure and with everything included was a great price. I wound up giving the stuff I didn't use away.

Perfect fit
By Aaaa on Apr 3, 2020
This kit was perfect for our tree frog and will continue to be for future reptile friends. Everything we needed (other than decorations/limb/folage/dishes/liner) was in included.

Great size
By Sara on Feb 14, 2020
When I ordered the tank I really didn’t expect it to be as big as it is! When I read the reviews I thought it was going to be tiny! But when I received the packaged I was shocked at how big it actually is. It’s well made and all the other add-ons are as well. Great purchase, would recommend 100%. Pictures show how big it actually is!
