Review: Larger than expected - This was much larger than I expected at this price point 😅 I thought it was going to be smaller. It's not a huge deal, but I was planning on using it for rubber ducky isopods and I only have 10 💀 I mean, I suppose they'll reproduce and fill it up eventually lol It comes with a plastic divider but the little holes are larger enough for smaller isopods to crawl thru. I tried covering the holes but there are still gaps on the bottom so 🤷🏼‍♀️ I guess I won't really use the divider. It's a decent little terrarium. It would be good for invertebrates but I wouldn't consider keeping reptiles or amphibians in here unless they were tiny babies, but even then, if you need to use heating elements, they'd probably melt the plastic. The breathing holes are pretty large, but I think my isopods should be fine. If I need to I'll just tape those over, too, since the lid also lets in plenty of airflow. I wouldn't keep small spiders or anything else that can climb in here, though, unless you don't mind reinforcing escape holes with window screen. It's only $5 per roll at Home Depot so it's an easy fix with a little hot glue and 20 minutes of your time
Review: Awesome! - I just received my Faunarium, and I could not be happier! I was very worried about the whole shipping thing, but it actually was well packaged. It had about three layers of thick bubble wrap, in its own box with some tissue paper. So, after I got the bubble wrap out, it had one tiny little crack on the side. But this is no problem, as most people wont look at the side. I am very relieved that it was not shattered like other reviewers said. The habitat even comes with a divider, incase someone don't get along. This is a great tank! It has so much room for a small critter. I have been keeping my hermit crab in a large critter tote, and have been looking for an upgrade that is not too overly priced. This about does it! He will be happy tonight! The tank does have somewhat of a orange glow to it, but it is barely noticeable! It has many air slots for your critter(s) to breathe. The only con is that since it is wide, I have to buy a little more sand, but this will last longer before I have to change. I am very happy with this tank, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great small critter habitat!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this work for a small turtle**
A: Far too small for any kind of turtle at all. If its an aquatic turtle, it needs at least one gallon of dechlorinated water per inch of carapace length (shell measured from head to tail). Also also turtles absolutely need UBV light (and calcium because without either of the 2, they get MBD & shell rot) so this housing would be inappropriate, because even if it were several times bigger & big enough to hold the right amount of water and a basking area, UVB rays cannot go through this kind of lid properly.

**Q: Does it have a handle?**
A: It does not have a handle

**Q: Ca I use a heat mat for this cage?**
A: Yes you can. I have kept reptiles since 1985. Heat mats are excellent as long as you use a thermostat. Never had an issue with them. If you are going to be using a bunch of these enclosures, you may want to look into heat tape or cable/rope.

**Q: how many gallons is it**
A: After doing the math, it's approximately 5.3 gallons for this faunarium.
