ReptiHabitat

The Zoo Med ReptiHabitat Tropical Starter Kit is a one - stop solution for creating the perfect living space for your tropical reptiles. No more guessing about what you need! This comprehensive kit includes a 10 - gallon terrarium (20' x 10' x 12') with a convenient sliding screen top, ensuring proper ventilation. You'll also get an 8 - liter Eco Earth brick, which provides a natural and comfortable substrate. There's 10 - gallon terrarium moss to add a touch of the wild, creating a more realistic habitat. A high - range reptile thermometer helps you keep an eye on the temperature, crucial for your reptile's well - being. The deluxe porcelain clamp lamp, paired with a 60 - watt daylight blue reptile lamp, mimics natural sunlight. Plus, it comes with sample packs of ReptiSafe water conditioner and ReptiCalcium to keep your pet healthy and hydrated.

Using the Zoo Med ReptiHabitat Tropical Starter Kit is easy. First, set up the 10 - gallon terrarium in a stable and quiet place away from direct sunlight and drafts. Unpack the Eco Earth brick and soak it in water until it expands to create a soft substrate at the bottom of the terrarium. Then, spread the terrarium moss over the substrate to add a natural look. Attach the high - range reptile thermometer to a side of the terrarium where you can easily read it. Install the deluxe porcelain clamp lamp on the top edge of the terrarium and screw in the daylight blue reptile lamp. Fill a small water dish with water treated with ReptiSafe and place it inside the terrarium. As for calcium, you can sprinkle a little ReptiCalcium on your reptile's food occasionally. When it comes to maintenance, clean the terrarium regularly to keep it hygienic. Replace the water in the dish daily. Check the thermometer often to make sure the temperature stays within the right range for your tropical reptile. Also, keep an eye on the condition of the moss and substrate, and replace them when they start to look dirty or moldy. Remember, different tropical reptiles have different needs, so always do some research on your specific pet's requirements.
