Exo Terra PT2600 Glass Terrarium 30 x 30 x 30 cm (Misc.)

Customer Review

I bought this for a terrarium-dwelling tarantula (Br. Smithi), mainly because the dimensions of the terrarium of 30 x 30 x 30 cm should be more than adequate for this type. The processing of the glass terrarium is good and just for the beginner can hardly be desired.

On the front page, just below the two doors, vents are installed, therefore where the vent from the front, as well as guarantee from above, through the screen cover. However, these are small enough that can escape from this not an animal. The doors themselves do not close completely, so that even here a minute gap can be seen, by the also an air exchange takes place. It is also interesting here, the locking of the doors, these must not be secured with an extra lock, which is offered as an accessory. The doors can not be simply levered from the terrarium inhabitants, this would have been an ordinary power behind it to the doors pry and on top of that to break the lock that holds the two doors closed by a simple but efficient way (unlike terrarium with sliding doors, where was already reported that one way or another tarantula has this pushed by their strength).

The terrarium provides coverage through its meshed structure also no escape, but again, divorced again the spirits, as were some holders of tarantulas, the animals had apparently entangled in such a cover with your feet and possibly injured. I can such an incident has not been confirmed and am also grateful for it, even though my little roommate is already often crawled to the terrarium cover along and has stayed at this very. The cover is additionally coated by four rotatable semicircular fasteners, so you can easily remove the cover and the escape is prevented also here from the outset.

Within the scope of the terrarium is also, as mentioned in the other reviews, a rear wall made of styrofoam, this is modeled on a rock wall and fits well as background. But as already mentioned, this backplane has her weaknesses. At the top is a little air, so that there can be both creep terrarium inhabitants as well as food animals. My tarantula has settled there every now and then during acclimatization and also one or the other cricket has taken advantage of this gap, to the advantage of the cricket because of the moving frame the tarantula should be restricted to the point, so that this cricket again healing for the moment has come of it.

It was also mentioned that can be found under the cover at the rear edge of the terrarium two small openings, which can be used to to install eg hygrometers, thermometers, lamps or another wired accessories with little effort in the terrarium. The two ports are also adjustable by slider, so you can also use only one of the openings, if necessary.

Due to the size of the terrarium and the attached approximately on the half doors, the terrarium can also with enough gravel fill (up to the ventilation slots), which just for ground-dwelling and grave end tarantulas species (like my Br. Smithi), comes to Good. These animals thus allowing them to create their own comfort zone and do not necessarily need to submit to the ideas of the most well-intentioned institutions of terrariums. Finally, our protégés are supposed to feel good and get a comparable habitat, like their wild relatives.

All in all, this investment worth the price, not least because the terrarium offers various options, ranging from ventilation through to protection of the terrarium, without additional accessories. Everything else is then up to the owner who should be willing to let his protégé to create a decent home and to take care of in accordance with it.
