Large Glass Terrarium

Lululemon, our 2-year-old Bearded Dragon, is obsessed with her new 'dragon suite!' The size is perfect—there’s plenty of room for all her climbing gear, hideouts, and her favorite oversized hammock. The quality is top-notch, and the sliding glass doors are a total game-changer for easy handling and effortless cleaning. Plus, even my husband—who usually dreads DIY projects—found the assembly quick and painless. Highly recommended!

If you’re here looking at larger tanks you probably already own a pet that is big enough to need a good amount of space, a couple of heat zones, accessories (basking, a hide, feeding, etc), and a budget of a few hundred dollars. So in this review I’ll assume that. There are several very similar tanks available, and it was hard for me to distinguish between all the features. This one met all my preferences and Hopefully this helps sum up: - WIDTH AND HEIGHT: 18 inches (sometimes 67 and 85 gallon measurements can be confusing, and this is $100+ cheaper than the 24-inch wide one that is otherwise the same. (If you have $500, a really big pet and also a table or stand that can support 2 ft wide and ~90 lbs, head for the 24x18 - otherwise this is a great midrange. - It is 4 ft (48 inches) long. (to get a quick idea of this size, stretch both your arms out. And from one fingertip across to about the other elbow is +\- 4 ft.) If you have an adult bearded dragon with accessories this is a really good size for heat zones and for them to move freely - 3 ft long (36 inches) long for a tank to me is quite small, even if it is a lot cheaper. - It has TWO SLIDING front glass panels - there are double grooves in the front so either panel slides fully over - giving you about 2 ft of access to either end of the tank. If you prefer swinging door(s) this tank is not it. - This one is a big feature: it is COLLAPSIBLE - it arrives packed mostly flat, AND can be broken back down for storage or transport. The base is assembled already and is 4 ft long by 4 inches tall and water-tight. Then the side, front and back panels (which are tempered glass) come flat and are assembled with corner and center poles - Two mesh SIDE VENTILATION panels are half-height and so combine with half-glass panels for better airflow. *Note that above 4 inches tall, the tank will NOT be water-tight - 4-cord CABLE MANAGEMENT port on one side, if you need to run cables inside the tank (I don’t, but It’s there if you do) - Metal mesh top with plastic outer frame. The frame itself is screwed in to the corners of the tank (for stability since it is assembled from pieces), but you can remove the mesh with latches. The top is not hinged, so this would be for cleaning, etc NOTE ALSO: Get lamp stands if you don’t have them. The mesh in the lid is metal, but the outer frame of the lid is PLASTIC - so you’ll need lamp stands to keep the lights up off the lid so the edges don’t melt. Plus, even though you won’t be opening the lid much, mercury vapor bulbs are super delicate (and also $$$) so should be moved/jostled as little as possible. This tank is really ideal for a single adult bearded dragon. For a pair, the minimum size would be 80 gallons (40 per pet) so you’d want the 24” wide tank If you are a new bearded dragon owner (I don’t know about other pets), be sure to check the wattage of your full spectrum UVA/UVB lights to make sure you’re getting adequate heat down to the bottom of the 18 inch-tall tank on the cool side, and have a climb or basking area that your pet can get within 6-12 inches of the heat on the hot side and it is still around 105 degrees. So a basking area that is 8-12 inches off the floor. I have the tank set up and just need to put accessories in before Jasper gets his new home, and I’ll update with pics of my handsome fellow!

This was easy to put together. We read all the reviews and took them into account as we put it together. Here are some tips: Go slow with the threaded posts and drop them in directly from the top so you can line up the threading. (It will make sense.) The threads get off very easily and it shouldn’t be difficult to screw them in. If you are forcing it, then it isn’t lined up. We adjusted a couple times if we noticed our next step when the bars we slide over were not level. But it’s easy to catch and fix. Be careful to read and look where the sliding glass doors line up with the top. We put the top on backwards and the double lanes or tracks for the sliders were off. Easy fix but something to be aware of that I quickly forgot and the directions do not point out. I recall some reviews mentioning the doors rattle. It’s true. They do. We first started with tucking a scrap of terrarium liner between the doors to dampen the rattle. What works well, because we do not use the locks, is to put the suction cup in the gap on the left or right side. It serves as a door knob too. It is also true- the locking mechanism isn’t great but our dragon isn’t looking to escape like other animals. So those suction cups are our door knobs. I think the lock provided could break the glass. For bearded dragons : note that the mesh - or any mesh- doesn’t allow UV to get through so prepare yourself with light set ups before you move your dragon. The top is nice and sturdy with a little spring loaded lock deal- just not for letting any UV through. We have liner in the bottom now but plan to do sand or some type of burrowing substrate . The bottom has a decent 1-2 inches below the door that will make it easy enough to keep clean and manage. I don’t write many reviews but this one seemed worthy to help other buyers ! Overall a good purchase if you are looking at a glass vivarium. The photos are to illustrate our set up and the suction cup in the door to stop the rattle. It is a bit of work to keep warm (no insulation etc) so I am gauging different options and plan to tie up my cords once that is finalized.

I love this product, it’s very large and has amazing quality screening at the top. It’s super easy to take the top off if needed and I love the feature that lets you lock the glass slider door. It’s easy to clean and well ventilated as there are side vents. The only problem was the cord insertion holes that you have to set up, I had two of the three pieces needed to set the part up that you can feed cords through. The one I was missing was the inside part that held the slider into the glass hole that they made for it to go inside. I simply hot glued it to the tank instead of waiting for a replacement and it works just fine and it doesn’t look bad at all you can’t even notice. This tank is amazing quality and was super easy to set up. I’d definitely recommend it I can just tell everything is amazing quality, the glass, the screens, the doors too everything is very nice.

Love the tank, lots of room for my adult beardie, arrived packaged very well & easy to assemble. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star is the lock on the sliding door. The key constantly falls out, difficult to reinsert and once "locked" doors are still able to slide but with some resistance. Luckily my beardie shouldn't be able to open it which would be my biggest concern. Overall, the tank sets up easily and is a very nice looking "Condo" for your beardie or other reptile.

I was really hesitant to order this cage online, but im glad I did. We have had it for 4 months now. It came packed flat and protected. Everything was simple to assemble. The cage works great. We keep it on the floor. There is a little gap underneath so occasionally bugs will crawl under when they escape from a feeding. The top is very sturdy and secure. Holds up to my cat's nightly acrobatics. I love the holes for cords. Can't complain and would absolutely purchase again.

This terrarium was very well packaged so that no damaged could be caused during shipping. The directions were easy to follow. The hardware was easy to tell apart and it came with a small screwdriver, so that no tools of mine were needed. It also came with gloves so you won't get cut handling the glass or put finger prints all over the glass. It is very sturdy after completely being assembled. It is a mostly glass terrarium, so I would suggest two people to safely pick it up and move it. We put several pounds of dirt in it & then moved it to another room (not suggested), but it definitely held the weight of the dirt. The top has a sturdy screen, it will not droop when heat lamps are placed on top. We use this terrarium for our adult bearded dragon and he seems t be very happy with it as well. 10/10 recommend this product.

Got this for a temporary set up for our 6 month old bearded dragon named Mushu. It’s very easy to put together. I appreciate the double set of “keys” it comes with to unlock/lock the glass. It’s definitely a lot wider than I anticipated! Very sturdy. Overall not very heavy and we were able to fit a lot more inside. Functions like it should. I wouldn’t put water directly into the tank because it does have mesh ventilation and would leak out the sides.

Quedó muy bonito y bien armado, instructivo en inglés, buena atención del vendedor, estaba un poco dura la rosca de la base, pero lo pediría otra vez 👍🏻
