Description

Repto Terra Clear Terrarium 15 × 16.5 × 21.5cm

The Repto Terra Clear Terrarium 15 × 16.5 × 21.5cm is a compact acrylic enclosure designed for smaller terrarium inhabitants, particularly invertebrates that don’t require a large footprint but benefit from useful vertical space.

Its clear construction gives you an excellent view inside, making it ideal for creating a small naturalistic display using cork, branches, foliage and suitable substrate. A ventilated mesh top, adjustable humidity cover and secure front-opening door make maintaining and accessing the enclosure straightforward.

Compact enough for a shelf or cabinet but tall enough to create an interesting miniature habitat, the Terra Clear is a great option for anyone wanting to discover just how fascinating some of the smaller inhabitants of the reptile room can be.

Reto Terra Clear is Ideal for Small Invertebrates

The Terra Clear is particularly useful for appropriately sized mantids, stick insects, beetles and certain spiders, along with other small terrarium inhabitants whose environmental requirements suit this style of enclosure.

At 21.5cm high, it provides useful vertical space for smaller climbing species and allows branches, cork and foliage to be arranged above the substrate rather than restricting everything to floor level.

Always choose an enclosure according to the adult size, behaviour, ventilation and environmental requirements of the particular species being kept.

Clear Acrylic Construction

Clear acrylic panels provide an unobstructed view into the enclosure, allowing both the animal and the habitat you’ve created around it to remain highly visible.

That’s particularly appealing with invertebrates. A beautifully marked mantis, spider or beetle is considerably more enjoyable when you can actually see the bloody thing.

The acrylic construction also keeps this compact enclosure relatively lightweight and easy to reposition when empty.

Ventilated Mesh Top

A mesh section in the top provides ventilation and allows suitable lighting to be positioned above the enclosure where required.

Ventilation requirements vary between species, so airflow, temperature and humidity should always be managed according to the animal you’re keeping.

Because this is a small clear enclosure, it should also be kept away from direct sunlight, where temperatures could rise rapidly.

Adjustable Humidity Retention

One of the particularly useful features of the Terra Clear is the supplied acrylic cover for the top mesh panel.

Positioning the cover over more of the mesh reduces ventilation through the top and helps the enclosure retain more humidity when required. This gives you greater control over the balance between airflow and moisture retention than a permanently open mesh top.

It doesn’t replace proper monitoring, however. Humidity should still be checked and adjusted according to the requirements of the individual species.

Easy Front Access

Rather than having to disturb the entire enclosure whenever you need access, the Terra Clear incorporates a folding front door.

This makes routine feeding, misting and maintenance considerably easier, particularly when you’ve carefully arranged branches and décor inside.

The door also incorporates a locking mechanism, helping to keep the inhabitant where it belongs — always a welcome feature when that inhabitant has eight legs and absolutely no respect for property boundaries.

Create a Miniature Naturalistic Habitat

This is where we think the Terra Clear becomes particularly interesting.

At only 15 × 16.5 × 21.5cm, you can create an attractive miniature habitat for invertebrates without needing the space required for a conventional vivarium.

Depending on the species, suitable substrate combined with cork, fine branches, leaf litter, moss and live or artificial foliage can transform a small enclosure into a fascinating little display.

Its compact footprint also makes it an interesting introduction to invertebrate keeping for someone who doesn’t have room for a large terrarium.

Simple Tool-Free Assembly

The Repto Terra Clear is supplied flat packed and has been designed for straightforward assembly without tools.

Once assembled, simply furnish the enclosure according to the needs of the animal you’re planning to keep.
