Customers say

Customers are sharply divided on this terrarium. Many report serious structural failures, particularly with doors that don't latch properly, hinges that snap on first use, and brittle plastic components that break easily. Reviewers consistently describe the build as cheap and flimsy, with concerns about safety for escape-prone reptiles. However, some customers acknowledge its affordability and find it acceptable for short-term or budget-conscious use, praising the front-opening design for feeding access. A few report it works adequately for smaller reptiles. Overall, structural reliability remains the primary concern, though budget-minded users find it serviceable despite its limitations.

Wouldn't recommend

Geos

Over the 2 years we've had this, 3 plastic clips/latches have broken during regular reasonable use. Luckily none have affected the security of keeping our snake, but poor quality

No, I do not recommend this product.

Bad Quality Top

AmiMoo

General design is nice and doors open well as long as tank is 100 percent level. Arrived with small crack in tank floor because lid clips were banging around loose inside. Definitely remove these immediately after purchase! Wire where it connects on top is flimsy at best. Purchased metal screen cover to hold lights that doesn’t touch tanks screens at all and yet screens are still sagging down a bit.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Disappointed to the max.

I am beyond sad.. I have wanted this habitat for YEARS since I got my leopard gecko. I couldn’t ever afford it. I finally scavenged up enough money to get one and I was so so excited. Within the first hour of setting it up it broke in 2 spots. I now have to be extremely careful when opening and closing one door and the other won’t lock unless I push it hard enough. I have already cried and yelled and I am just so upset.. you would have thought a $250 cage was going to be of decent quality..

No, I do not recommend this product.

Fake sale price

Fake sale. Says 50% off and that isn't true. The normal price is the 50% sale price.

The glass SUCKS

I ordered this today and had it delivered… it came with 2 chips in the glass, one on the bottom right hand of the right door and a hole on the top left of the left door. There was shards in the bottom of the tank when I opened it for the first time, and after looking I had only found the small chip on the right side, so I vacuumed the tank and set it up. Then I noticed the big one on the left door. Now I am incredibly nervous that the whole door will shatter. I will have to buy another tank now :(

No, I do not recommend this product.

I bought this product and got it home and noticed the lid was broken. They wanted me to take the whole thing back apart and drive it back to the next city for a replacement instead of just letting me exchange the top. The unit was poorly made and I ended up not keeping it.

No, I do not recommend this product.

I bought this a year ago for my leopard gecko. Definitely a good size and has been very durable. One HUGE thing is to make sure you latch the front doors all the way every time. I thought I fully closed it one night, and turns out it was only partially pushed in (looked closed, but didn't fully latch). My leopard gecko got out and went missing. I'm writing this review because I just found my gecko, alive, a full year later. I still plan to use this enclosure, but thought I would let you all know to double check the front doors always!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Questions

1 - 10 of 14 Questions

How much topsoil needs?

    Is this a good tank for a baby ball python until it outgrows it? Will it get enough humidity?

    1. Yes the 40 gallon double door tank would do well for a young ball python until it needs a larger tank. To keep the humidity in you can look into the Zoo Med humidity plus silicon cover for one side of the tank.



    how many gallons would a tank this size be?

    1. This would be our 40 gallon breeder double door tank.



    Can a bearded dragon live in this tank comfortably?

      Is this okay for bearded dragon?

        Will a DHP(deep heat projector) melt the top if sitting directly on the mesh? If so, how high should it be hung or should we get a full metal mesh top?

        1. A DHP can be set directly on the screen top you just want to make sure that you have screen around the edges of the fixture. You do not want to place it to close to the frame of the tank which is plastic and can melt.



        What lighting kit would you reccomend for the 40 gallon tank

        1. reptisun LED



        Is this tank suitable for a Ball Python? I was thinking about getting one as a first time snake owner.

        1. Ball pythons need a minimum of 4x2x2 feet



        Does this tank hold water?

        1. Yes, the bottom portion is watertight.



        Where can I buy a replacement door for this cage?
