Zoo Med Naturalistic Terrarium

A front-opening glass terrarium for reptiles, amphibians and live plants. The Zoo Med Naturalistic Terrarium has a full-front glass door, a stainless steel screen top and flow-through ventilation, and its base is built to hold water, so it works as a planted vivarium, a paludarium with land and water areas, or a dry-land setup. Four sizes, from a 12 x 12 x 12 in cube up to an 18 x 18 x 24 in tall.

Features

• Full-front glass door: a single front door with a snap latch for easy access and a clear view.
• Lockable: holes above the latch take a small lock (lock not included; Zoo Med's Repti Lock, item NT-TL, is sold separately).
• Stainless steel screen top: corrosion-resistant mesh chosen for UVB and light transmission. It keeps feeder insects in and supports a dome clamp lamp fixture on top, or Zoo Med's optional Naturalistic Terrarium Light Bar (sold separately) to mount lamps inside.
• Flow-through ventilation: a vented grill below the door lets air in, and it rises out through the screen top for better air exchange than a top-only screen.
• Six cord and airline exits: three on each side at the back of the top frame, with hold-down clips in the screen cover that keep cords in place and insects in.
• Water-holding base: the bottom can be filled with water up to the plastic vent below the door, for a paludarium, a water-and-gravel bottom, or a waterfall with a pump and background.
• Under-tank heater ready: two cord slots at the back of the base, and the base is raised at the back and sides to let excess heat escape. Do not use an under-tank heater when the base is filled with water.

No. The terrarium includes the glass enclosure, door and screen top. Lighting, the Light Bar and the Repti Lock are sold separately.

Can I keep water in it?
Yes. The base holds water up to the vent below the door. Just don't run an under-tank heater while the base is filled with water.
